Did We not expand for you, [O Muhammad], your breast?
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ألم نشرح لك صدرك
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,
Chapter 94, 8 verses
Did We not expand for you, [O Muhammad], your breast?
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ألم نشرح لك صدرك
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,
And We removed from you your burden
ووضعنا عنك وزرك
And eased thee of the burden
Which had weighed upon your back
الذي أنقض ظهرك
Which weighed down thy back;
And raised high for you your repute.
ورفعنا لك ذكرك
And exalted thy fame ?
For indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.
فإن مع العسر يسرا
But lo! with hardship goeth ease,
Indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.
إن مع العسر يسرا
Lo! with hardship goeth ease;
So when you have finished [your duties], then stand up [for worship].
فإذا فرغت فانصب
So when thou art relieved, still toil
And to your Lord direct [your] longing.
وإلى ربك فارغب
And strive to please thy Lord.
