In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والعاديات ضبحا

فالموريات قدحا

And push home the charge in the morning,
And scouring to the raid at dawn,
فالمغيرات صبحا
And the chargers at dawn,
And raise the dust in clouds the while,
Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,
فأثرن به نقعا
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
And penetrate forthwith into the midst (of the foe) en masse; -
Cleaving, as one, the centre (of the foe),

And lo! he is a witness unto that;
وإنه على ذلك لشهيد

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
۞ أفلا يعلم إذا بعثر ما في القبور

And that which is (locked up) in (human) breasts is made manifest -
And the secrets of the breasts are made known,
وحصل ما في الصدور
And that within the breasts is obtained,
That their Lord had been Well - acquainted with them, (even to) that Day?
On that day will their Lord be perfectly concerning them.
إن ربهم بهم يومئذ لخبير
Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.
