# Translation Ayah
1 I swear by yonder city لَا أُقْسِمُ بِهَذَا الْبَلَدِ
2 And thou shalt be allowed in yonder city - وَأَنتَ حِلٌّ بِهَذَا الْبَلَدِ
3 And by the begetter and that which he begat, وَوَالِدٍ وَمَا وَلَدَ
4 Assuredly We have created man in trouble. لَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانَ فِي كَبَدٍ
5 Deemest he that none will overpower him? أَيَحْسَبُ أَن لَّن يَقْدِرَ عَلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ
6 He saith: 'I have wasted riches plenteous. يَقُولُ أَهْلَكْتُ مَالًا لُّبَدًا
7 Deemest he that none beholdeth him? أَيَحْسَبُ أَن لَّمْ يَرَهُ أَحَدٌ
8 Have We not, made for him two eyes أَلَمْ نَجْعَل لَّهُ عَيْنَيْنِ
9 And a tongue and two lips, وَلِسَانًا وَشَفَتَيْنِ
10 And shown Unto him the two highways? وَهَدَيْنَاهُ النَّجْدَيْنِ
11 Yet he attempteth not the steep, فَلَا اقْتَحَمَ الْعَقَبَةَ
12 And what shall make thee understand that which the steep is? وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْعَقَبَةُ
13 It is freeing the neck, فَكُّ رَقَبَةٍ
14 Or, feeding, in a day of privation, أَوْ إِطْعَامٌ فِي يَوْمٍ ذِي مَسْغَبَةٍ
15 An orphan, of kin, يَتِيمًا ذَا مَقْرَبَةٍ
16 Or a poor man cleaving to the dust. أَوْ مِسْكِينًا ذَا مَتْرَبَةٍ
17 Then he became of those who believed and enjoined on each other steadfastness and enjoined on each other compassion. ثُمَّ كَانَ مِنَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالصَّبْرِ وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالْمَرْحَمَةِ
18 These are the fellows of the righthand. أُوْلَئِكَ أَصْحَابُ الْمَيْمَنَةِ
19 And those who disbelieve Our signs - they are the fellows of the lefthand. وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بِآيَاتِنَا هُمْ أَصْحَابُ الْمَشْأَمَةِ
20 Over them shall be Fire closing round. عَلَيْهِمْ نَارٌ مُّؤْصَدَةٌ
