Al-Layl
الليل
The Night
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ ١
Wal-laili iżā yagsyā.
By the night when it covers
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ ٢
Wan-nahāri iżā tajallā.
And [by] the day when it appears
وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ ٣
Wa mā khalaqaż-żakara wal-unṡā.
And [by] He who created the male and female,
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ ٤
Inna sa‘yakum lasyattā.
Indeed, your efforts are diverse.
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ ٥
Fa ammā man a‘ṭā wattaqā.
As for he who gives and fears Allāh
وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ ٦
Wa ṣaddaqa bil-ḥusnā.
And believes in the best [reward],
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ ٧
Fa sanuyassiruhū lil-yusrā.
We will ease him toward ease.
وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسْتَغْنَىٰ ٨
Wa ammā man bakhila wastagnā.
But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need
وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ ٩
Wa każżaba bil-ḥusnā.
And denies the best [reward],
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ ١٠
Fa sanuyassiruhū lil-‘usrā.
We will ease him toward difficulty.
وَمَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ ١١
Wa mā yugnī ‘anhu māluhū iżā taraddā.
And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ ١٢
Inna ‘alainā lal-hudā.
Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance.
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْـَٔاخِرَةَ وَٱلْأُولَىٰ ١٣
Wa inna lanā lal-ākhirata wal-ūlā.
And indeed, to us belongs the Hereafter and the first [life].
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ ١٤
Fa anżartukum nāran talaẓẓā.
So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing.
لَا يَصْلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلْأَشْقَى ١٥
Lā yaṣlāhā illal-asyqā.
None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one
ٱلَّذِى كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ١٦
Allażī każżaba wa tawallā.
Who had denied and turned away.
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَتْقَى ١٧
Wa sayujannabuhal-atqā.
But the righteous one will avoid it
ٱلَّذِى يُؤْتِى مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ ١٨
Allażī yu'tī mālahū yatazakkā.
[He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰٓ ١٩
Wa mā li'aḥadin ‘indahū min ni‘matin tujzā.
And not [giving] for anyone who has [done him] a favor to be rewarded
إِلَّا ٱبْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ ٢٠
Illabtigā'a wajhi rabbihil-a‘lā.
But only seeking the face [i.e., acceptance] of his Lord, Most High.
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ ٢١
Wa lasaufa yarḍā.
And he is going to be satisfied.
