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