By the Night as it conceals (the light);
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
Waallayli itha yaghsha
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
Chapter 92, 21 verses
By the Night as it conceals (the light);
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
Waallayli itha yaghsha
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ
By the Day as it appears in glory;
وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
Waalnnahari itha tajalla
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
By (the mystery of) the creation of male and female; -
وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَىٰ
Wama khalaqa alththakara waalontha
وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ
Verily, (the ends) ye strive for are diverse.
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ
Inna saAAyakum lashatta
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ
So he who gives (in charity) and fears (Allah),
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَاتَّقَىٰ
Faamma man aAAta waittaqa
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ
And (in all sincerity) testifies to the best, -
وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ
Wasaddaqa bialhusna
وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Bliss.
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
Fasanuyassiruhu lilyusra
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
But he who is a greedy miser and thinks himself self - sufficient,
وَأَمَّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَىٰ
Waamma man bakhila waistaghna
وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسْتَغْنَىٰ
And gives the lie to the best, -
وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ
Wakaththaba bialhusna
وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ
We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Misery;
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ
Fasanuyassiruhu lilAAusra
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ
Nor will his wealth profit him when he falls headlong (into the Pit).
وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰ
Wama yughnee AAanhu maluhu itha taradda
وَمَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ
Verily We take upon Ourselves to guide,
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ
Inna AAalayna lalhuda
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ
And verily unto Us (belong) the End and the Beginning.
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْآخِرَةَ وَالْأُولَىٰ
Wainna lana lalakhirata waaloola
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْءَاخِرَةَ وَٱلْأُولَىٰ
Therefore do I warn you of a Fire blazing fiercely;
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
Faanthartukum naran talaththa
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ
None shall reach it but those most unfortunate ones
لَا يَصْلَاهَا إِلَّا الْأَشْقَى
La yaslaha illa alashqa
لَا يَصْلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلْأَشْقَى
Who give the lie to Truth and turn their backs.
الَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
Allathee kaththaba watawalla
ٱلَّذِى كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
But those most devoted to Allah shall be removed far from it, -
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الْأَتْقَى
Wasayujannabuha alatqa
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَتْقَى
Those who spend their wealth for increase in self - purification,
الَّذِي يُؤْتِي مَالَهُ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
Allathee yutee malahu yatazakka
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
Wama liahadin AAindahu min niAAmatin tujza
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
Illa ibtighaa wajhi rabbihi alaAAla
إِلَّا ٱبْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ
And soon will they attain (complete) satisfaction.
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
Walasawfa yarda
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ
