Chapter 100, 11 verses
By the (Steeds) that run, with panting (breath),
By the racers, panting,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والعاديات ضبحا
WaalAAadiyati dabhan
And strike sparks of fire,
And the producers of sparks [when] striking
فالموريات قدحا
Faalmooriyati qadhan
And push home the charge in the morning,
And the chargers at dawn,
فالمغيرات صبحا
Faalmugheerati subhan
And raise the dust in clouds the while,
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
فأثرن به نقعا
Faatharna bihi naqAAan
And penetrate forthwith into the midst (of the foe) en masse; -
Arriving thereby in the center collectively,
فوسطن به جمعا
Fawasatna bihi jamAAan
Truly man is, to his Lord, ungrateful;
Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.
إن الإنسان لربه لكنود
Inna alinsana lirabbihi lakanoodun
And to that (fact) he bears witness (by his deeds);
And indeed, he is to that a witness.
وإنه على ذلك لشهيد
Wainnahu AAala thalika lashaheedun
And violent is he in his love of wealth.
And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.
وإنه لحب الخير لشديد
Wainnahu lihubbi alkhayri lashadeedun
Does he not know, - when that which is in the graves is scattered abroad
But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered
۞ أفلا يعلم إذا بعثر ما في القبور
Afala yaAAlamu itha buAAthira ma fee alquboori
And that which is (locked up) in (human) breasts is made manifest -
And that within the breasts is obtained,
وحصل ما في الصدور
Wahussila ma fee alssudoori
That their Lord had been Well - acquainted with them, (even to) that Day?
Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted.
إن ربهم بهم يومئذ لخبير
Inna rabbahum bihim yawmaithin lakhabeerun
