Chapter 100, 11 verses
By the racers, panting,
By the (Steeds) that run, with panting (breath),
WaalAAadiyati dabhan
I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,
And the producers of sparks [when] striking
And strike sparks of fire,
Faalmooriyati qadhan
Then those that produce fire striking,
And the chargers at dawn,
And push home the charge in the morning,
Faalmugheerati subhan
Then those that make raids at morn,
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
And raise the dust in clouds the while,
Faatharna bihi naqAAan
Then thereby raise dust,
Arriving thereby in the center collectively,
And penetrate forthwith into the midst (of the foe) en masse; -
Fawasatna bihi jamAAan
Then rush thereby upon an assembly:
Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.
Truly man is, to his Lord, ungrateful;
Inna alinsana lirabbihi lakanoodun
Most surely man is ungrateful to his Lord.
And indeed, he is to that a witness.
And to that (fact) he bears witness (by his deeds);
Wainnahu AAala thalika lashaheedun
And most surely he is a witness of that.
And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.
And violent is he in his love of wealth.
Wainnahu lihubbi alkhayri lashadeedun
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
Does he not know, - when that which is in the graves is scattered abroad
Afala yaAAlamu itha buAAthira ma fee alquboori
Does he not then know when what is in the graves is raised,
And that within the breasts is obtained,
And that which is (locked up) in (human) breasts is made manifest -
Wahussila ma fee alssudoori
And what is in the breasts is made apparent?
Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.
That their Lord had been Well - acquainted with them, (even to) that Day?
Inna rabbahum bihim yawmaithin lakhabeerun
Most surely their Lord that day shall be fully aware of them.
