Chapter 92, 21 verses
By the Night as it conceals (the light);
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والليل إذا يغشى
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
By the Day as it appears in glory;
وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
والنهار إذا تجلى
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
By (the mystery of) the creation of male and female; -
وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَىٰ
وما خلق الذكر والأنثى
وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ
Verily, (the ends) ye strive for are diverse.
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ
إن سعيكم لشتى
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ
So he who gives (in charity) and fears (Allah),
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَاتَّقَىٰ
فأما من أعطى واتقى
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ
And (in all sincerity) testifies to the best, -
وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ
وصدق بالحسنى
وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Bliss.
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
فسنيسره لليسرى
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
But he who is a greedy miser and thinks himself self - sufficient,
وَأَمَّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَىٰ
وأما من بخل واستغنى
وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسْتَغْنَىٰ
And gives the lie to the best, -
وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ
وكذب بالحسنى
وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Misery;
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ
فسنيسره للعسرى
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ
Nor will his wealth profit him when he falls headlong (into the Pit).
وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰ
وما يغني عنه ماله إذا تردى
وَمَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ
Verily We take upon Ourselves to guide,
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ
إن علينا للهدى
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ
And verily unto Us (belong) the End and the Beginning.
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْآخِرَةَ وَالْأُولَىٰ
وإن لنا للآخرة والأولى
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْءَاخِرَةَ وَٱلْأُولَىٰ
Therefore do I warn you of a Fire blazing fiercely;
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
فأنذرتكم نارا تلظى
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
None shall reach it but those most unfortunate ones
لَا يَصْلَاهَا إِلَّا الْأَشْقَى
لا يصلاها إلا الأشقى
لَا يَصْلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلْأَشْقَى
Who give the lie to Truth and turn their backs.
الَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
الذي كذب وتولى
ٱلَّذِى كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
But those most devoted to Allah shall be removed far from it, -
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الْأَتْقَى
وسيجنبها الأتقى
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَتْقَى
Those who spend their wealth for increase in self - purification,
الَّذِي يُؤْتِي مَالَهُ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
الذي يؤتي ماله يتزكى
ٱلَّذِى يُؤْتِى مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
And have in their minds no favour from anyone for which a reward is expected in return,
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰ
وما لأحد عنده من نعمة تجزى
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰٓ
But only the desire to seek for the Countenance of their Lord Most High;
إِلَّا ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ الْأَعْلَىٰ
إلا ابتغاء وجه ربه الأعلى
إِلَّا ٱبْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ
And soon will they attain (complete) satisfaction.
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
ولسوف يرضى
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
