92. Al-Layl

وَٱلَّيۡلِ إِذَا يَغۡشَىٰ

By the night when it enshrouds

وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ

and by the day when it breaks in its glory

وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلۡأُنثَىٰٓ

and by Him Who created the male and the female

إِنَّ سَعۡيَكُمۡ لَشَتَّىٰ

surely your strivings are divergent

فَأَمَّا مَنۡ أَعۡطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ

As for him who gave out his wealth (for Allah's sake) and abstained (from disobeying Him)

وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰ

and affirmed the Truth of goodness

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلۡيُسۡرَىٰ

We shall facilitate for him the Way to Bliss

وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسۡتَغۡنَىٰ

As for him who was a miser and behaved with aversion (to Allah)

وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰ

and denied the Truth of goodness

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلۡعُسۡرَىٰ

We shall facilitate for him the way to Hardship

وَمَا يُغۡنِي عَنۡهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ

and his wealth shall be of no avail to him when he perishes

إِنَّ عَلَيۡنَا لَلۡهُدَىٰ

Surely it is for Us to show the Right Way

وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلۡأٓخِرَةَ وَٱلۡأُولَىٰ

and to Us belong the Next Life and the present

فَأَنذَرۡتُكُمۡ نَارࣰ ا تَلَظَّىٰ

I have now warned you of a Blazing Fire

لَا يَصۡلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلۡأَشۡقَى

where none shall burn except the most wicked

ٱلَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ

who rejected the Truth, calling it falsehood and turned his back on it

وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلۡأَتۡقَى

But the God-fearing shall be kept away from it

ٱلَّذِي يُؤۡتِي مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ

the Godfearing who spends his wealth to purify himself

وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعۡمَةࣲ تُجۡزَىٰٓ

not as payment for any favours that he received

إِلَّا ٱبۡتِغَآءَ وَجۡهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلۡأَعۡلَىٰ

but only to seek the good pleasure of his Lord Most High

وَلَسَوۡفَ يَرۡضَىٰ

He will surely be well-pleased (with him)
