Chapter 100, 11 verses
By the racers, panting,
By the (Steeds) that run, with panting (breath),
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والعاديات ضبحا
WaalAAadiyati dabhan
And the producers of sparks [when] striking
And strike sparks of fire,
فالموريات قدحا
Faalmooriyati qadhan
And the chargers at dawn,
And push home the charge in the morning,
فالمغيرات صبحا
Faalmugheerati subhan
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
And raise the dust in clouds the while,
فأثرن به نقعا
Faatharna bihi naqAAan
Arriving thereby in the center collectively,
And penetrate forthwith into the midst (of the foe) en masse; -
فوسطن به جمعا
Fawasatna bihi jamAAan
Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.
Truly man is, to his Lord, ungrateful;
إن الإنسان لربه لكنود
Inna alinsana lirabbihi lakanoodun
And indeed, he is to that a witness.
And to that (fact) he bears witness (by his deeds);
وإنه على ذلك لشهيد
Wainnahu AAala thalika lashaheedun
And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.
And violent is he in his love of wealth.
وإنه لحب الخير لشديد
Wainnahu lihubbi alkhayri lashadeedun
But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered
Does he not know, - when that which is in the graves is scattered abroad
۞ أفلا يعلم إذا بعثر ما في القبور
Afala yaAAlamu itha buAAthira ma fee alquboori
And that within the breasts is obtained,
And that which is (locked up) in (human) breasts is made manifest -
وحصل ما في الصدور
Wahussila ma fee alssudoori
Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.
That their Lord had been Well - acquainted with them, (even to) that Day?
إن ربهم بهم يومئذ لخبير
Inna rabbahum bihim yawmaithin lakhabeerun
