Chapter 100, 11 verses
By the (Steeds) that run, with panting (breath),
WaalAAadiyati dabhan
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the snorting courses,
By the racers, panting,
And strike sparks of fire,
Faalmooriyati qadhan
Striking sparks of fire
And the producers of sparks [when] striking
And push home the charge in the morning,
Faalmugheerati subhan
And scouring to the raid at dawn,
And the chargers at dawn,
And raise the dust in clouds the while,
Faatharna bihi naqAAan
Then, therewith, with their trail of dust,
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
And penetrate forthwith into the midst (of the foe) en masse; -
Fawasatna bihi jamAAan
Cleaving, as one, the centre (of the foe),
Arriving thereby in the center collectively,
Truly man is, to his Lord, ungrateful;
Inna alinsana lirabbihi lakanoodun
Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord
Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.
And to that (fact) he bears witness (by his deeds);
Wainnahu AAala thalika lashaheedun
And lo! he is a witness unto that;
And indeed, he is to that a witness.
And violent is he in his love of wealth.
Wainnahu lihubbi alkhayri lashadeedun
And lo! in the love of wealth he is violent.
And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.
Does he not know, - when that which is in the graves is scattered abroad
Afala yaAAlamu itha buAAthira ma fee alquboori
Knoweth he not that, when the contents of the graves are poured forth
But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered
And that which is (locked up) in (human) breasts is made manifest -
Wahussila ma fee alssudoori
And the secrets of the breasts are made known,
And that within the breasts is obtained,
That their Lord had been Well - acquainted with them, (even to) that Day?
Inna rabbahum bihim yawmaithin lakhabeerun
On that day will their Lord be perfectly concerning them.
Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.
