1. * |
By the dawn.
|
|
2. * |
And the ten nights.
|
|
3. * |
And the even and the odd.
|
|
4. * |
And the night when it passes.
|
|
5. * |
In this is an oath for the one with intelligence.
|
|
6. * |
Did you not see what your Lord did to 'Aad?
|
|
7. * |
Irum, with the great columns?
|
|
8. * |
The one which was like no other in the land?
|
|
9. * |
And Thamud who carved the rocks in the valley?
|
|
10. * |
And Pharaoh with the planks?
|
|
11. * |
They all transgressed in the land.
|
|
12. * |
And made much corruption therein.
|
|
13. * |
So your Lord poured upon them a measure of retribution.
|
|
14. * |
Your Lord is ever watchful.
|
|
15. * |
As for man, if his Lord tests him and grants him much, then he says: "My Lord has blessed me!"
|
|
16. * |
And if his Lord tests him and gives him little wealth, then he says: "My Lord has humiliated me!"
|
|
17. * |
No, you are not generous to the orphan.
|
|
18. * |
And you do not look to feeding the poor.
|
|
19. * |
And you consume others inheritance, all with greed.
|
|
20. * |
And you love money, a love that is excessive.
|
|
21. * |
No, when the Earth is pounded into rubble.
|
|
22. * |
And your Lord comes with the Angels row after row.
|
|
23. * |
And Hell on that Day is brought. On that Day man will remember, but how will the remembrance now help him?
|
|
24. * |
He says: "I wish I had worked towards my life!"
|
|
25. * |
On that Day, no other will bear his punishment.
|
|
26. * |
Nor will anyone be able to free his bonds.
|
|
27. * |
"O you soul which is peaceful."
|
|
28. * |
"Return to your Lord happy and content."
|
|
29. * |
"And enter in amongst My servants."
|
|
30. * |
"And enter My Paradise."
