The Night

وَٱلَّيۡلِ إِذَا يَغۡشَىٰ

By the night when it covers

وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ

And [by] the day when it appears

وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلۡأُنثَىٰٓ

And [by] He who created the male and female

إِنَّ سَعۡيَكُمۡ لَشَتَّىٰ

Indeed, your efforts are diverse

فَأَمَّا مَنۡ أَعۡطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ

As for he who gives and fears Allah

وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰ

And believes in the best [reward]

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلۡيُسۡرَىٰ

We will ease him toward ease

وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسۡتَغۡنَىٰ

But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need

وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰ

And denies the best [reward]

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلۡعُسۡرَىٰ

We will ease him toward difficulty

وَمَا يُغۡنِي عَنۡهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ

And what will his wealth avail him when he falls

إِنَّ عَلَيۡنَا لَلۡهُدَىٰ

Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance

وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلۡأٓخِرَةَ وَٱلۡأُولَىٰ

And indeed, to Us belongs the Hereafter and the first [life]

فَأَنذَرۡتُكُمۡ نَارٗا تَلَظَّىٰ

So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing

لَا يَصۡلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلۡأَشۡقَى

None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one

ٱلَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ

Who had denied and turned away

وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلۡأَتۡقَى

But the righteous one will avoid it

ٱلَّذِي يُؤۡتِي مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ

[He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself

وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعۡمَةٖ تُجۡزَىٰٓ

And not [giving] for anyone who has [done him] a favor to be rewarded

إِلَّا ٱبۡتِغَآءَ وَجۡهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلۡأَعۡلَىٰ

But only seeking the countenance of his Lord, Most High

وَلَسَوۡفَ يَرۡضَىٰ

And he is going to be satisfied
