Chapter 100, 11 verses
By the racers, panting,
I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,
WaalAAadiyati dabhan
وَٱلْعَٰدِيَٰتِ ضَبْحًا
And the producers of sparks [when] striking
Then those that produce fire striking,
Faalmooriyati qadhan
فَٱلْمُورِيَٰتِ قَدْحًا
And the chargers at dawn,
Then those that make raids at morn,
Faalmugheerati subhan
فَٱلْمُغِيرَٰتِ صُبْحًا
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
Then thereby raise dust,
Faatharna bihi naqAAan
فَأَثَرْنَ بِهِۦ نَقْعًا
Arriving thereby in the center collectively,
Then rush thereby upon an assembly:
Fawasatna bihi jamAAan
فَوَسَطْنَ بِهِۦ جَمْعًا
Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.
Most surely man is ungrateful to his Lord.
Inna alinsana lirabbihi lakanoodun
إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ لِرَبِّهِۦ لَكَنُودٌ
And indeed, he is to that a witness.
And most surely he is a witness of that.
Wainnahu AAala thalika lashaheedun
وَإِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ ذَٰلِكَ لَشَهِيدٌ
And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.
And most surely he is tenacious in the love of wealth.
Wainnahu lihubbi alkhayri lashadeedun
وَإِنَّهُۥ لِحُبِّ ٱلْخَيْرِ لَشَدِيدٌ
But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered
Does he not then know when what is in the graves is raised,
Afala yaAAlamu itha buAAthira ma fee alquboori
أَفَلَا يَعْلَمُ إِذَا بُعْثِرَ مَا فِى ٱلْقُبُورِ
And that within the breasts is obtained,
And what is in the breasts is made apparent?
Wahussila ma fee alssudoori
وَحُصِّلَ مَا فِى ٱلصُّدُورِ
Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.
Most surely their Lord that day shall be fully aware of them.
Inna rabbahum bihim yawmaithin lakhabeerun
إِنَّ رَبَّهُم بِهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّخَبِيرٌۢ
