# Translation Ayah
1 By oath of the night when it covers وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى
2 And by oath of the day when it shines وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّى
3 And by oath of the One Who created the male and the female. وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَى
4 Indeed your efforts differ. إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّى
5 So for one who gave and practised piety فَأَمَّا مَن أَعْطَى وَاتَّقَى
6 And believed the best matter to be true وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَى
7 So We will very soon provide him ease. فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَى
8 And for him who hoarded wealth and remained carefree, وَأَمَّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَى
9 And denied the best matter, وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَى
10 So We will very soon provide him hardship. فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَى
11 His wealth will not avail him when he falls into ruin. وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّى
12 Indeed guiding is upon Us. إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَى
13 And indeed the Hereafter and this world both belong to Us. وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْآخِرَةَ وَالْأُولَى
14 I therefore warn you of the fire that is ablaze. فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّى
15 None except the most wicked will enter it. لَا يَصْلَاهَا إِلَّا الْأَشْقَى
16 The one who denied and turned away. الَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّى
17 He will be far away from the most pious. (The first Caliph S. Abu Bakr Siddiq) وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الْأَتْقَى
18 Who gives his wealth in order to be pure. الَّذِي يُؤْتِي مَالَهُ يَتَزَكَّى
19 And no one has done a favour to him, for which he should be compensated. وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَى
20 He desires only to please his Lord, the Supreme. إِلَّا ابْتِغَاء وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ الْأَعْلَى
21 And indeed, soon he will be very pleased. وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَى
