Chapter 92, 21 verses
By the night when it covers
By the Night as it conceals (the light);
শপথ রজনীর, যখন সে আচ্ছন্ন করে,
I swear by the night when it draws a veil,
And [by] the day when it appears
By the Day as it appears in glory;
শপথ দিবসের, যখন উহা উদ্ভাসিত হয়
And the day when it shines in brightness,
And [by] He who created the male and female,
By (the mystery of) the creation of male and female; -
এবং শপথ তাঁহার, যিনি নর ও নারী সৃষ্টি করিয়াছেন -
And the creating of the male and the female,
Indeed, your efforts are diverse.
Verily, (the ends) ye strive for are diverse.
অবশ্যই তোমাদের কর্মপ্রচেষ্টা বিভিন্ন প্রকৃতির।
Your striving is most surely (directed to) various (ends).
As for he who gives and fears Allah
So he who gives (in charity) and fears (Allah),
সুতরাং কেহ দান করিলে, হইলে
Then as for him who gives away and guards (against evil),
And believes in the best [reward],
And (in all sincerity) testifies to the best, -
এবং যাহা উত্তম তাহা সত্য বলিয়া গ্রহণ করিলে,
And accepts the best,
We will ease him toward ease.
We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Bliss.
আমি তাহার জন্য সুগম করিয়া দিব সহজ পথ।
We will facilitate for him the easy end.
But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need
But he who is a greedy miser and thinks himself self - sufficient,
এবং কেহ কার্পণ্য করিলে ও নিজেকে স্বয়ংসম্পূর্ণ মনে করিলে,
And as for him who is niggardly and considers himself free from need (of Allah),
And denies the best [reward],
And gives the lie to the best, -
আর যাহা উত্তম তাহা অস্বীকার করিলে,
And rejects the best,
We will ease him toward difficulty.
We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Misery;
তাহার জন্য আমি সুগম করিয়া দিব কঠোর পথ।
We will facilitate for him the difficult end.
And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?
Nor will his wealth profit him when he falls headlong (into the Pit).
এবং তাহার সম্পদ তাহার কোন কাজে আসিবে না, যখন সে ধ্বংস হইবে।
And his wealth will not avail him when he perishes.
Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance.
Verily We take upon Ourselves to guide,
আমার কাজ তো কেবল পথনির্দেশ করা,
Surely Ours is it to show the way,
And indeed, to Us belongs the Hereafter and the first [life].
And verily unto Us (belong) the End and the Beginning.
আমি তো মালিক পরলোকের ও ইহলোকের।
And most surely Ours is the hereafter and the former.
So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing.
Therefore do I warn you of a Fire blazing fiercely;
আমি তোমাদেরকে লেলিহান অগ্নি সম্পর্কে সতর্ক করিয়া দিয়াছি।
Therefore I warn you of the fire that flames:
None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one.
None shall reach it but those most unfortunate ones
উহাতে প্রবেশ করিবে সে - ই, যে নিতান্ত হতভাগ্য,
None shall enter it but the most unhappy,
Who had denied and turned away.
Who give the lie to Truth and turn their backs.
যে অস্বীকার করে ও মুখ ফিরাইয়া নেয়।
Who gives the lie (to the truth) and turns (his) back.
But the righteous one will avoid it -
But those most devoted to Allah shall be removed far from it, -
আর উহা হইতে দূরে রাখা হইবে পরম মুত্তাকীকে,
And away from it shall be kept the one who guards most (against evil),
[He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself
Those who spend their wealth for increase in self - purification,
যে স্বীয় সম্পদ দান করে আত্মশুদ্ধির জন্য,
Who gives away his wealth, purifying himself
And not [giving] for anyone who has [done him] a favor to be rewarded
And have in their minds no favour from anyone for which a reward is expected in return,
এবং তাহার প্রতি কাহারও অনুগ্রহের প্রতিদানে নয়,
And no one has with him any boon for which he should be rewarded,
But only seeking the countenance of his Lord, Most High.
But only the desire to seek for the Countenance of their Lord Most High;
কেবল তাহার মহান প্রতিপালকের সন্তুষ্টির প্রত্যাশায় ;
Except the seeking of the pleasure of his Lord, the Most High.
And he is going to be satisfied.
And soon will they attain (complete) satisfaction.
সে তো অচিরেই সন্তোষ লাভ করিবে।
And he shall soon be well - pleased.
