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