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,
Have We not expanded thee thy breast? -

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,
Have We not expanded thee thy breast? -
Alam nashrah laka sadraka
And We removed from you your burden
And eased thee of the burden
And removed from thee thy burden
WawadaAAna AAanka wizraka
Which had weighed upon your back
Which weighed down thy back;
The which did gall thy back? -
Allathee anqada thahraka
And raised high for you your repute.
And exalted thy fame ?
And raised high the esteem (in which) thou (art held)?
WarafaAAna laka thikraka
For indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.
But lo! with hardship goeth ease,
So, verily, with every difficulty, there is relief:
Fainna maAAa alAAusri yusran
Indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.
Lo! with hardship goeth ease;
Verily, with every difficulty there is relief.
Inna maAAa alAAusri yusran
So when you have finished [your duties], then stand up [for worship].
So when thou art relieved, still toil
Therefore, when thou art free (from thine immediate task), still labour hard,
Faitha faraghta fainsab
And to your Lord direct [your] longing.
And strive to please thy Lord.
And to thy Lord turn (all) thy attention.
