Chapter 92, 21 verses
By the night when it covers
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والليل إذا يغشى
Waallayli itha yaghsha
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
And [by] the day when it appears
والنهار إذا تجلى
Waalnnahari itha tajalla
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
And [by] He who created the male and female,
وما خلق الذكر والأنثى
Wama khalaqa alththakara waalontha
وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ
Indeed, your efforts are diverse.
إن سعيكم لشتى
Inna saAAyakum lashatta
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ
As for he who gives and fears Allah
فأما من أعطى واتقى
Faamma man aAAta waittaqa
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ
And believes in the best [reward],
وصدق بالحسنى
Wasaddaqa bialhusna
وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
We will ease him toward ease.
فسنيسره لليسرى
Fasanuyassiruhu lilyusra
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need
وأما من بخل واستغنى
Waamma man bakhila waistaghna
وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسْتَغْنَىٰ
And denies the best [reward],
وكذب بالحسنى
Wakaththaba bialhusna
وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
We will ease him toward difficulty.
فسنيسره للعسرى
Fasanuyassiruhu lilAAusra
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ
And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?
وما يغني عنه ماله إذا تردى
Wama yughnee AAanhu maluhu itha taradda
وَمَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ
Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance.
إن علينا للهدى
Inna AAalayna lalhuda
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ
And indeed, to Us belongs the Hereafter and the first [life].
وإن لنا للآخرة والأولى
Wainna lana lalakhirata waaloola
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْءَاخِرَةَ وَٱلْأُولَىٰ
So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing.
فأنذرتكم نارا تلظى
Faanthartukum naran talaththa
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one.
لا يصلاها إلا الأشقى
La yaslaha illa alashqa
لَا يَصْلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلْأَشْقَى
Who had denied and turned away.
الذي كذب وتولى
Allathee kaththaba watawalla
ٱلَّذِى كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
But the righteous one will avoid it -
وسيجنبها الأتقى
Wasayujannabuha alatqa
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَتْقَى
[He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself
الذي يؤتي ماله يتزكى
Allathee yutee malahu yatazakka
ٱلَّذِى يُؤْتِى مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
And not [giving] for anyone who has [done him] a favor to be rewarded
وما لأحد عنده من نعمة تجزى
Wama liahadin AAindahu min niAAmatin tujza
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰٓ
But only seeking the countenance of his Lord, Most High.
إلا ابتغاء وجه ربه الأعلى
Illa ibtighaa wajhi rabbihi alaAAla
إِلَّا ٱبْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ
And he is going to be satisfied.
ولسوف يرضى
Walasawfa yarda
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
