Chapter 92, 21 verses
By the night when it covers
Waallayli itha yaghsha
বিসমিল্লাহির রাহমা-নির রাহি-ম অল্লাইলি ইযা-ইয়াগ্শা-।
I swear by the night when it draws a veil,
And [by] the day when it appears
Waalnnahari itha tajalla
অন্নাহা-রি ইযা-তাজ্বাল্লা-।
And the day when it shines in brightness,
And [by] He who created the male and female,
Wama khalaqa alththakara waalontha
অমা-খলাক্বায্ যাকার অল্উন্সা-।
And the creating of the male and the female,
Indeed, your efforts are diverse.
Inna saAAyakum lashatta
ইন্না সা'ইয়াকুম্ লাশাত্তা-।
Your striving is most surely (directed to) various (ends).
As for he who gives and fears Allah
Faamma man aAAta waittaqa
ফাআম্মা মান্ আ'ত্বোয়া-অত্তাক্ব-।
Then as for him who gives away and guards (against evil),
And believes in the best [reward],
Wasaddaqa bialhusna
অ ছোয়াদ্দাক্বা বিল্হুস্না-।
And accepts the best,
We will ease him toward ease.
Fasanuyassiruhu lilyusra
ফাসানুইয়াস্সিরুহূ লিল্ইয়ুস্র-।
We will facilitate for him the easy end.
But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need
Waamma man bakhila waistaghna
অআম্মা-মাম্ বাখিলা অস্তাগ্না-।
And as for him who is niggardly and considers himself free from need (of Allah),
And denies the best [reward],
Wakaththaba bialhusna
অ কায্যাবা বিল্হুস্না-।
And rejects the best,
We will ease him toward difficulty.
Fasanuyassiruhu lilAAusra
ফাসানুইয়াস্সিরুহূ লিল্ 'উসরা।
We will facilitate for him the difficult end.
And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?
Wama yughnee AAanhu maluhu itha taradda
অমা-ইয়ুগ্নী 'আন্হু মা-লুহূ য় ইযা-তারাদ্দা-।
And his wealth will not avail him when he perishes.
Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance.
Inna AAalayna lalhuda
ইন্না 'আলাইনা- লাল্হুদা-।
Surely Ours is it to show the way,
And indeed, to Us belongs the Hereafter and the first [life].
Wainna lana lalakhirata waaloola
অইন্না লানা- লাল্আ-খিরতা অল্ ঊলা-।
And most surely Ours is the hereafter and the former.
So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing.
Faanthartukum naran talaththa
ফাআর্ন্যাতুকুম্ না-রান্ তালাজ্জোয়া-।
Therefore I warn you of the fire that flames:
None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one.
La yaslaha illa alashqa
লা-ইয়াছ্লা-হা য় ইল্লাল্ আশ্ক্ব।
None shall enter it but the most unhappy,
Who had denied and turned away.
Allathee kaththaba watawalla
ল্লাযী কায্যাবা অতাওয়াল্লা-।
Who gives the lie (to the truth) and turns (his) back.
But the righteous one will avoid it -
Wasayujannabuha alatqa
অসাইয়ুজ্বান্নাবুহাল্ আত্ক্ব।
And away from it shall be kept the one who guards most (against evil),
[He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself
Allathee yutee malahu yatazakka
আল্লাযী ইয়ু”তী মা-লাহূ ইয়াতাযাক্কা-।
Who gives away his wealth, purifying himself
And not [giving] for anyone who has [done him] a favor to be rewarded
Wama liahadin AAindahu min niAAmatin tujza
অমা-লিআহাদিন্ 'ইন্দাহূ মিন্ নি'মাতিন্ তুজযা য়।
And no one has with him any boon for which he should be rewarded,
But only seeking the countenance of his Lord, Most High.
Illa ibtighaa wajhi rabbihi alaAAla
ইল্লাব্তিগা-য়া অজহি রব্বিহিল্ 'আলা-।
Except the seeking of the pleasure of his Lord, the Most High.
And he is going to be satisfied.
Walasawfa yarda
অলাসাওফা ইর্য়াদ্বোয়া-।
And he shall soon be well - pleased.
