Chapter 100, 11 verses
By the racers, panting,
By the (Steeds) that run, with panting (breath),
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,
WaalAAadiyati dabhan
And the producers of sparks [when] striking
And strike sparks of fire,
Striking sparks of fire
Faalmooriyati qadhan
And the chargers at dawn,
And push home the charge in the morning,
And scouring to the raid at dawn,
Faalmugheerati subhan
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
And raise the dust in clouds the while,
Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,
Faatharna bihi naqAAan
Arriving thereby in the center collectively,
And penetrate forthwith into the midst (of the foe) en masse; -
Cleaving, as one, the centre (of the foe),
Fawasatna bihi jamAAan
Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.
Truly man is, to his Lord, ungrateful;
Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord

And indeed, he is to that a witness.
And to that (fact) he bears witness (by his deeds);
And lo! he is a witness unto that;
Wainnahu AAala thalika lashaheedun
And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.
And violent is he in his love of wealth.
And lo! in the love of wealth he is violent.
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
Knoweth he not that, when the contents of the graves are poured forth
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 -
And the secrets of the breasts are made known,
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?
On that day will their Lord be perfectly concerning them.
Inna rabbahum bihim yawmaithin lakhabeerun
