وَٱلَّيۡلِ إِذَا يَغۡشَىٰ
By the night enshrouding
Al-Layl 92:2
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
And the day resplendent
Al-Layl 92:3
وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلۡأُنثَىٰٓ
And Him Who hath created male and female,
Al-Layl 92:4
إِنَّ سَعۡيَكُمۡ لَشَتَّىٰ
Lo! your effort is dispersed (toward divers ends).
Al-Layl 92:5
فَأَمَّا مَنۡ أَعۡطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ
As for him who giveth and is dutiful (toward Allah)
Al-Layl 92:6
وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰ
And believeth in goodness;
Al-Layl 92:7
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلۡيُسۡرَىٰ
Surely We will ease his way unto the state of ease.
Al-Layl 92:8
وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسۡتَغۡنَىٰ
But as for him who hoardeth and deemeth himself independent,
Al-Layl 92:9
وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰ
And disbelieveth in goodness;
Al-Layl 92:10
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلۡعُسۡرَىٰ
Surely We will ease his way unto adversity.
Al-Layl 92:11
وَمَا يُغۡنِي عَنۡهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ
His riches will not save him when he perisheth.
Al-Layl 92:12
إِنَّ عَلَيۡنَا لَلۡهُدَىٰ
Lo! Ours it is (to give) the guidance
Al-Layl 92:13
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلۡأٓخِرَةَ وَٱلۡأُولَىٰ
And lo! unto Us belong the latter portion and the former.
Al-Layl 92:14
فَأَنذَرۡتُكُمۡ نَارٗا تَلَظَّىٰ
Therefor have I warned you of the flaming Fire
Al-Layl 92:15
لَا يَصۡلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلۡأَشۡقَى
Which only the most wretched must endure,
Al-Layl 92:16
ٱلَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
He who denieth and turneth away.
Al-Layl 92:17
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلۡأَتۡقَى
Far removed from it will be the righteous
Al-Layl 92:18
ٱلَّذِي يُؤۡتِي مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
Who giveth his wealth that he may grow (in goodness).
Al-Layl 92:19
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعۡمَةٖ تُجۡزَىٰٓ
And none hath with him any favour for reward,
Al-Layl 92:20
إِلَّا ٱبۡتِغَآءَ وَجۡهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلۡأَعۡلَىٰ
Except as seeking (to fulfil) the purpose of his Lord Most High.
Al-Layl 92:21
وَلَسَوۡفَ يَرۡضَىٰ
He verily will be content.
