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