92 - The Night |
| |
|
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. |
| |
| |
| 1 | By the Night as it conceals (the light); |
| |
| 2 | By the Day as it appears in glory; |
| |
| 3 | By the creation of male and female;- |
| |
| 4 | Verily, (the ends) ye strive for are diverse. |
| |
| 5 | So he who gives (in charity) and fears (Allah), |
| |
| 6 | And (in all sincerity) testifies to the best,- |
| |
| 7 | We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Ease. |
| |
| 8 | But he who is a greedy miser and thinks himself self-sufficient, |
| |
| 9 | And gives the lie to the best,- |
| |
| 10 | We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Misery; |
| |
| 11 | Nor will his wealth profit him when he falls headlong (into the Pit). |
| |
| 12 | Verily We take upon Us to guide, |
| |
| 13 | And verily unto Us (belong) the End and the Beginning. |
| |
| 14 | Therefore do I warn you of a Fire blazing fiercely; |
| |
| 15 | None shall burn therein but those most unfortunate ones |
| |
| 16 | Who give the lie to Truth and turn their backs. |
| |
| 17 | But those most devoted to Allah shall be removed far from it,- |
| |
| 18 | Those who spend their wealth for increase in self-purification, |
| |
| 19 | And have in their minds no favor from anyone for which a reward is expected in return, |
| |
| 20 | But only the desire to seek for the Countenance of their Lord Most High; |
| |
| 21 | And soon will they attain (complete) satisfaction. |
