The Night
Al-Layl
92:1
بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
In the Name of Allah—the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful.
...
92:2
وَٱلَّيۡلِ إِذَا يَغۡشَىٰ
By the night when it covers,
...
92:3
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ
and the day when it shines!
...
92:4
وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلۡأُنثَىٰٓ
And by ˹the One˺ Who created male and female!
...
92:5
إِنَّ سَعۡيَكُمۡ لَشَتَّىٰ
Surely the ends you strive for are diverse.
...
92:6
فَأَمَّا مَنۡ أَعۡطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ
As for the one who is charitable, mindful ˹of Allah˺,
...
92:7
وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰ
and ˹firmly˺ believes in the finest reward,
...
92:8
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلۡيُسۡرَىٰ
We will facilitate for them the Way of Ease.
...
92:9
وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسۡتَغۡنَىٰ
And as for the one who is stingy, indifferent ˹to Allah˺,
...
92:10
وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰ
and ˹staunchly˺ denies the finest reward,
...
92:11
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلۡعُسۡرَىٰ
We will facilitate for them the path of hardship.
...
92:12
وَمَا يُغۡنِي عَنۡهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ
And their wealth will be of no benefit to them when they tumble ˹into Hell˺.
...
92:13
إِنَّ عَلَيۡنَا لَلۡهُدَىٰ
It is certainly upon Us ˹alone˺ to show ˹the way to˺ guidance.
...
92:14
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلۡأٓخِرَةَ وَٱلۡأُولَىٰ
And surely to Us ˹alone˺ belong this life and the next.
...
92:15
فَأَنذَرۡتُكُمۡ نَارٗا تَلَظَّىٰ
And so I have warned you of a raging Fire,
...
92:16
لَا يَصۡلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلۡأَشۡقَى
in which none will burn except the most wretched—
...
92:17
ٱلَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
who deny and turn away.
...
92:18
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلۡأَتۡقَى
But the righteous will be spared from it—
...
92:19
ٱلَّذِي يُؤۡتِي مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ
who donate ˹some of˺ their wealth only to purify themselves,
...
92:20
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعۡمَةٖ تُجۡزَىٰٓ
not in return for someone’s favours,
...
92:21
إِلَّا ٱبۡتِغَآءَ وَجۡهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلۡأَعۡلَىٰ
but seeking the pleasure of their Lord, the Most High.
...
92:22
وَلَسَوۡفَ يَرۡضَىٰ
They will certainly be pleased.
...
