Chapter 92, 21 verses
By the night when it covers
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
I swear by the night when it draws a veil,
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
And [by] the day when it appears
وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
And the day when it shines in brightness,
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
And [by] He who created the male and female,
وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَىٰ
And the creating of the male and the female,
وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ
Indeed, your efforts are diverse.
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ
Your striving is most surely (directed to) various (ends).
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ
As for he who gives and fears Allah
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَاتَّقَىٰ
Then as for him who gives away and guards (against evil),
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ
And believes in the best [reward],
وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ
And accepts the best,
وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
We will ease him toward ease.
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
We will facilitate for him the easy end.
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need
وَأَمَّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَىٰ
And as for him who is niggardly and considers himself free from need (of Allah),
وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسْتَغْنَىٰ
And denies the best [reward],
وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ
And rejects the best,
وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
We will ease him toward difficulty.
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ
We will facilitate for him the difficult end.
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ
And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?
وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰ
And his wealth will not avail him when he perishes.
وَمَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ
Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance.
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ
Surely Ours is it to show the way,
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ
And indeed, to Us belongs the Hereafter and the first [life].
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْآخِرَةَ وَالْأُولَىٰ
And most surely Ours is the hereafter and the former.
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْءَاخِرَةَ وَٱلْأُولَىٰ
So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing.
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
Therefore I warn you of the fire that flames:
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one.
لَا يَصْلَاهَا إِلَّا الْأَشْقَى
None shall enter it but the most unhappy,
لَا يَصْلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلْأَشْقَى
Who had denied and turned away.
الَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
Who gives the lie (to the truth) and turns (his) back.
ٱلَّذِى كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
But the righteous one will avoid it -
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الْأَتْقَى
And away from it shall be kept the one who guards most (against evil),
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَتْقَى
[He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself
الَّذِي يُؤْتِي مَالَهُ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
Who gives away his wealth, purifying himself
ٱلَّذِى يُؤْتِى مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
And not [giving] for anyone who has [done him] a favor to be rewarded
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰ
And no one has with him any boon for which he should be rewarded,
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰٓ
But only seeking the countenance of his Lord, Most High.
إِلَّا ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ الْأَعْلَىٰ
Except the seeking of the pleasure of his Lord, the Most High.
إِلَّا ٱبْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ
And he is going to be satisfied.
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
And he shall soon be well - pleased.
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
