Sura: Al-Lail
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ ٩٢:١
I CALL THE night to witness when it covers over,
﴿١﴾
وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ ٩٢:٢
And the day when it shines in all its glory,
﴿٢﴾
وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنْثَىٰ ٩٢:٣
And Him who created the male and female,
﴿٣﴾
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ ٩٢:٤
That your endeavour is for different ends.
﴿٤﴾
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَاتَّقَىٰ ٩٢:٥
Yet he who gives to others and has fear,
﴿٥﴾
وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ ٩٢:٦
And affirms goodness,
﴿٦﴾
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ ٩٢:٧
We shall ease the way of fortune for him.
﴿٧﴾
وَأَمَّا مَنْ بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَىٰ ٩٢:٨
But he who does not give and is unconcerned,
﴿٨﴾
وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ ٩٢:٩
And rejects goodness,
﴿٩﴾
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ ٩٢:١٠
For him We shall ease the way of adversity,
﴿١٠﴾
وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰ ٩٢:١١
And his riches will not avail him when he falls headlong (into the Abyss).
﴿١١﴾
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ ٩٢:١٢
It is indeed for Us to show the way,
﴿١٢﴾
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْآخِرَةَ وَالْأُولَىٰ ٩٢:١٣
And to Us belong the End and the Beginning.
﴿١٣﴾
فَأَنْذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ ٩٢:١٤
So, I warn you of the blazing Fire.
﴿١٤﴾
لَا يَصْلَاهَا إِلَّا الْأَشْقَى ٩٢:١٥
No one will burn in it but the most wretched,
﴿١٥﴾
الَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ٩٢:١٦
Who denied (the truth) and turned away.
﴿١٦﴾
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الْأَتْقَى ٩٢:١٧
But save him who fears
﴿١٧﴾
الَّذِي يُؤْتِي مَالَهُ يَتَزَكَّىٰ ٩٢:١٨
And gives of his wealth that he may grow in virtue,
﴿١٨﴾
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِنْدَهُ مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰ ٩٢:١٩
And is under no one's obligation to return his favour,
﴿١٩﴾
إِلَّا ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ الْأَعْلَىٰ ٩٢:٢٠
Other than seeking the glory of his Lord, most high,
﴿٢٠﴾
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ ٩٢:٢١
Will surely be gratified.
﴿٢١﴾
