Surah The Enshrouded One

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلۡمُزَّمِّلُ

O you who wraps himself [in clothing]

قُمِ ٱلَّيۡلَ إِلَّا قَلِيلٗا

Arise [to pray] the night, except for a little

نِّصۡفَهُۥٓ أَوِ ٱنقُصۡ مِنۡهُ قَلِيلًا

Half of it - or subtract from it a little

أَوۡ زِدۡ عَلَيۡهِ وَرَتِّلِ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ تَرۡتِيلًا

Or add to it, and recite the Qur'an with measured recitation

إِنَّا سَنُلۡقِي عَلَيۡكَ قَوۡلٗا ثَقِيلًا

Indeed, We will cast upon you a heavy word

إِنَّ نَاشِئَةَ ٱلَّيۡلِ هِيَ أَشَدُّ وَطۡـٔٗا وَأَقۡوَمُ قِيلًا

Indeed, the hours of the night are more effective for concurrence [of heart and tongue] and more suitable for words

إِنَّ لَكَ فِي ٱلنَّهَارِ سَبۡحٗا طَوِيلٗا

Indeed, for you by day is prolonged occupation

وَٱذۡكُرِ ٱسۡمَ رَبِّكَ وَتَبَتَّلۡ إِلَيۡهِ تَبۡتِيلٗا

And remember the name of your Lord and devote yourself to Him with [complete] devotion

رَّبُّ ٱلۡمَشۡرِقِ وَٱلۡمَغۡرِبِ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ فَٱتَّخِذۡهُ وَكِيلٗا

[He is] the Lord of the East and the West; there is no deity except Him, so take Him as Disposer of [your] affairs

وَٱصۡبِرۡ عَلَىٰ مَا يَقُولُونَ وَٱهۡجُرۡهُمۡ هَجۡرٗا جَمِيلٗا

And be patient over what they say and avoid them with gracious avoidance
