| In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. |
|
|
|
1. | I swear by the night when it draws a veil, |
2. | And the day when it shines in brightness, |
3. | And the creating of the male and the female, |
4. | Your striving is most surely (directed to) various (ends). |
S. | Then as for him who gives away and guards (against evil), |
6. | And accepts the best, |
7. | We will facilitate for him the easy end |
8. | And as for him who is niggardly and considers himself free from need (of Allah), |
9. | And rejects the best, |
10. | We will facilitate for him the difficult end |
11. | And his wealth will not avail him when he perishes |
12. | Surely Ours is it to show the way, |
13. | And most surely Ours is the hereafter and the former |
14. | Therefore I warn you of the fire that flames: |
15. | None shall enter it but the most unhappy, |
16. | Who gives the lie (to the truth) and turns (his) back |
17. | And away from it shall be kept the one who guards most (against evil), |
18. | Who gives away his wealth, purifying himself |
19. | And no one has with him any boon for which he should be rewarded, |
20. | Except the seeking of the pleasure of his Lord, the Most High. |
21. | And he shall soon be well-pleased |
