Chapter 92, 21 verses
By the Night as it conceals (the light);
Waallayli itha yaghsha
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
By the night when it covers
By the Day as it appears in glory;
Waalnnahari itha tajalla
وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
And [by] the day when it appears
By (the mystery of) the creation of male and female; -
Wama khalaqa alththakara waalontha
وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَىٰ
And [by] He who created the male and female,
Verily, (the ends) ye strive for are diverse.
Inna saAAyakum lashatta
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ
Indeed, your efforts are diverse.
So he who gives (in charity) and fears (Allah),
Faamma man aAAta waittaqa
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَاتَّقَىٰ
As for he who gives and fears Allah
And (in all sincerity) testifies to the best, -
Wasaddaqa bialhusna
وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ
And believes in the best [reward],
We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Bliss.
Fasanuyassiruhu lilyusra
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
We will ease him toward ease.
But he who is a greedy miser and thinks himself self - sufficient,
Waamma man bakhila waistaghna
وَأَمَّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَىٰ
But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need
And gives the lie to the best, -
Wakaththaba bialhusna
وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ
And denies the best [reward],
We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Misery;
Fasanuyassiruhu lilAAusra
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ
We will ease him toward difficulty.
Nor will his wealth profit him when he falls headlong (into the Pit).
Wama yughnee AAanhu maluhu itha taradda
وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰ
And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?
Verily We take upon Ourselves to guide,
Inna AAalayna lalhuda
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ
Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance.
And verily unto Us (belong) the End and the Beginning.
Wainna lana lalakhirata waaloola
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْآخِرَةَ وَالْأُولَىٰ
And indeed, to Us belongs the Hereafter and the first [life].
Therefore do I warn you of a Fire blazing fiercely;
Faanthartukum naran talaththa
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing.
None shall reach it but those most unfortunate ones
La yaslaha illa alashqa
لَا يَصْلَاهَا إِلَّا الْأَشْقَى
None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one.
Who give the lie to Truth and turn their backs.
Allathee kaththaba watawalla
الَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
Who had denied and turned away.
But those most devoted to Allah shall be removed far from it, -
Wasayujannabuha alatqa
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الْأَتْقَى
But the righteous one will avoid it -
Those who spend their wealth for increase in self - purification,
Allathee yutee malahu yatazakka
الَّذِي يُؤْتِي مَالَهُ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
[He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself
And have in their minds no favour from anyone for which a reward is expected in return,
Wama liahadin AAindahu min niAAmatin tujza
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰ
And not [giving] for anyone who has [done him] a favor to be rewarded
But only the desire to seek for the Countenance of their Lord Most High;
Illa ibtighaa wajhi rabbihi alaAAla
إِلَّا ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ الْأَعْلَىٰ
But only seeking the countenance of his Lord, Most High.
And soon will they attain (complete) satisfaction.
Walasawfa yarda
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
And he is going to be satisfied.
