 |
| وَالْفَجْرِ {١} |
1. By the dawn, |
| وَلَيَالٍ عَشْرٍ {٢} |
2. And by ten nights, |
| وَالشَّفْعِ وَالْوَتْرِ {٣} |
3. And by the even and the odd, |
| وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَسْرِ {٤} |
4. And by the night when it departeth, |
| هَلْ فِي ذَٰلِكَ قَسَمٌ لِذِي حِجْرٍ {٥} |
5. Indeed in that there is an oath for a man of sense. |
| أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِعَادٍ {٦} |
6. Bethinkest thou not in what wise thy Lord did with the ´A´ad: |
| إِرَمَ ذَاتِ الْعِمَادِ {٧} |
7. The people of many-columned lram. |
| الَّتِي لَمْ يُخْلَقْ مِثْلُهَا فِي الْبِلَادِ {٨} |
8. The like of which was not built in the cities, |
| وَثَمُودَ الَّذِينَ جَابُوا الصَّخْرَ بِالْوَادِ {٩} |
9. And With Thamud who hewed out rocks in the vale, |
| وَفِرْعَوْنَ ذِي الْأَوْتَادِ {١٠} |
10. And with Fir´awn, owner of the stakes - |
| الَّذِينَ طَغَوْا فِي الْبِلَادِ {١١} |
11. Who all waxed exorbitant in the cities, |
| فَأَكْثَرُوا فِيهَا الْفَسَادَ {١٢} |
12. And multiplied therein corruption. |
| فَصَبَّ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّكَ سَوْطَ عَذَابٍ {١٣} |
13. Wherefore thy Lord poured on them the scourge of His torment. |
| إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَبِالْمِرْصَادِ {١٤} |
14. Verily thy Lord is in an ambuscade, |
| فَأَمَّا الْإِنْسَانُ إِذَا مَا ابْتَلَاهُ رَبُّهُ فَأَكْرَمَهُ وَنَعَّمَهُ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّي أَكْرَمَنِ {١٥} |
15. As for man - when his Lord proveth him and so honoureth him and is bounteous Unto him, then he saith: ´my Lord hath honoured me, |
| وَأَمَّا إِذَا مَا ابْتَلَاهُ فَقَدَرَ عَلَيْهِ رِزْقَهُ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّي أَهَانَنِ {١٦} |
16. And when He proveth him, and so stinteth Unto him his provision, he saith: ´my Lord hath despised me. |
| كَلَّا ۖ بَلْ لَا تُكْرِمُونَ الْيَتِيمَ {١٧} |
17. By no means! But ye honour not the orphan, |
| وَلَا تَحَاضُّونَ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ الْمِسْكِينِ {١٨} |
18. Nor urge upon each other the feeding of the poor, |
| وَتَأْكُلُونَ التُّرَاثَ أَكْلًا لَمًّا {١٩} |
19. And devour the inheritance devouring greedily, |
| وَتُحِبُّونَ الْمَالَ حُبًّا جَمًّا {٢٠} |
20. And ye love riches with exceeding love. |
| كَلَّا إِذَا دُكَّتِ الْأَرْضُ دَكًّا دَكًّا {٢١} |
21. By no means! when the earth shall be ground with grinding, grinding, |
| وَجَاءَ رَبُّكَ وَالْمَلَكُ صَفًّا صَفًّا {٢٢} |
22. And thy Lord shall come and the angels, rank on rank. |
| وَجِيءَ يَوْمَئِذٍ بِجَهَنَّمَ ۚ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَتَذَكَّرُ الْإِنْسَانُ وَأَنَّىٰ لَهُ الذِّكْرَىٰ {٢٣} |
23. And the Hell on that Day shall be brought nigh. On that Day man shall remember, but how will remembrance avail him? |
| يَقُولُ يَا لَيْتَنِي قَدَّمْتُ لِحَيَاتِي {٢٤} |
24. He will say. ´would that I had sent before for this life of mine! |
| فَيَوْمَئِذٍ لَا يُعَذِّبُ عَذَابَهُ أَحَدٌ {٢٥} |
25. Wherefore on that Day none shall torment with His torment. |
| وَلَا يُوثِقُ وَثَاقَهُ أَحَدٌ {٢٦} |
26. Nor shall any bind with His bond. |
| يَا أَيَّتُهَا النَّفْسُ الْمُطْمَئِنَّةُ {٢٧} |
27. O thou peaceful soul! |
| ارْجِعِي إِلَىٰ رَبِّكِ رَاضِيَةً مَرْضِيَّةً {٢٨} |
28. Return Unto thine Lord well pleased and well-pleasing. |
| فَادْخُلِي فِي عِبَادِي {٢٩} |
29. Enter thou among My righteous bondmen! |
| وَادْخُلِي جَنَّتِي {٣٠} |
30. And enter thou My Garden. |
