 |
| وَالْفَجْرِ {١} |
1. I swear by the daybreak, |
| وَلَيَالٍ عَشْرٍ {٢} |
2. And the ten nights, |
| وَالشَّفْعِ وَالْوَتْرِ {٣} |
3. And the even and the odd, |
| وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَسْرِ {٤} |
4. And the night when it departs. |
| هَلْ فِي ذَٰلِكَ قَسَمٌ لِذِي حِجْرٍ {٥} |
5. Truly in that there is an oath for those who possess understanding. |
| أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِعَادٍ {٦} |
6. Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with Ad, |
| إِرَمَ ذَاتِ الْعِمَادِ {٧} |
7. (The people of) Aram, possessors of lofty buildings, |
| الَّتِي لَمْ يُخْلَقْ مِثْلُهَا فِي الْبِلَادِ {٨} |
8. The like of which were not created in the (other) cities; |
| وَثَمُودَ الَّذِينَ جَابُوا الصَّخْرَ بِالْوَادِ {٩} |
9. And (with) Samood, who hewed out the rocks in the valley, |
| وَفِرْعَوْنَ ذِي الْأَوْتَادِ {١٠} |
10. And (with) Firon, the lord of hosts, |
| الَّذِينَ طَغَوْا فِي الْبِلَادِ {١١} |
11. Who committed inordinacy in the cities, |
| فَأَكْثَرُوا فِيهَا الْفَسَادَ {١٢} |
12. So they made great mischief therein? |
| فَصَبَّ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّكَ سَوْطَ عَذَابٍ {١٣} |
13. Therefore your Lord let down upon them a portion of the chastisement. |
| إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَبِالْمِرْصَادِ {١٤} |
14. Most sure!y your Lord is watching. |
| فَأَمَّا الْإِنْسَانُ إِذَا مَا ابْتَلَاهُ رَبُّهُ فَأَكْرَمَهُ وَنَعَّمَهُ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّي أَكْرَمَنِ {١٥} |
15. And as for man, when his Lord tries him, then treats him with honor and makes him lead an easy life, he says: My Lord honors me. |
| وَأَمَّا إِذَا مَا ابْتَلَاهُ فَقَدَرَ عَلَيْهِ رِزْقَهُ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّي أَهَانَنِ {١٦} |
16. But when He tries him (differently), then straitens to him his means of subsistence, he says: My Lord has disgraced me. |
| كَلَّا ۖ بَلْ لَا تُكْرِمُونَ الْيَتِيمَ {١٧} |
17. Nay! but you do not honor the orphan, |
| وَلَا تَحَاضُّونَ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ الْمِسْكِينِ {١٨} |
18. Nor do you urge one another to feed the poor, |
| وَتَأْكُلُونَ التُّرَاثَ أَكْلًا لَمًّا {١٩} |
19. And you eat away the heritage, devouring (everything) indiscriminately, |
| وَتُحِبُّونَ الْمَالَ حُبًّا جَمًّا {٢٠} |
20. And you love wealth with exceeding love. |
| كَلَّا إِذَا دُكَّتِ الْأَرْضُ دَكًّا دَكًّا {٢١} |
21. Nay! when the earth is made to crumble to pieces, |
| وَجَاءَ رَبُّكَ وَالْمَلَكُ صَفًّا صَفًّا {٢٢} |
22. And your Lord comes and (also) the angels in ranks, |
| وَجِيءَ يَوْمَئِذٍ بِجَهَنَّمَ ۚ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَتَذَكَّرُ الْإِنْسَانُ وَأَنَّىٰ لَهُ الذِّكْرَىٰ {٢٣} |
23. And hell is made to appear on that day. On that day shall man be mindful, and what shall being mindful (then) avail him? |
| يَقُولُ يَا لَيْتَنِي قَدَّمْتُ لِحَيَاتِي {٢٤} |
24. He shall say: O! would that I had sent before for (this) my life! |
| فَيَوْمَئِذٍ لَا يُعَذِّبُ عَذَابَهُ أَحَدٌ {٢٥} |
25. But on that day shall no one chastise with (anything like) His chastisement, |
| وَلَا يُوثِقُ وَثَاقَهُ أَحَدٌ {٢٦} |
26. And no one shall bind with (anything like) His binding. |
| يَا أَيَّتُهَا النَّفْسُ الْمُطْمَئِنَّةُ {٢٧} |
27. O soul that art at rest! |
| ارْجِعِي إِلَىٰ رَبِّكِ رَاضِيَةً مَرْضِيَّةً {٢٨} |
28. Return to your Lord, well-pleased (with him), well-pleasing (Him), |
| فَادْخُلِي فِي عِبَادِي {٢٩} |
29. So enter among My servants, |
| وَادْخُلِي جَنَّتِي {٣٠} |
30. And enter into My garden. |
