| 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). |
| 5. * | 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. |
