سُورَةُ اللَّيۡلِ

The Night

Bismillah
92:1
وَٱلَّيۡلِ إِذَا يَغۡشَىٰ ١
By the Night as it covers [the light of the Day];
92:2
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ ٢
and the Day as it manifests in glory;
92:3
وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلۡأُنثَىٰٓ ٣
and the creation of the male and the female.1
92:4
إِنَّ سَعۡيَكُمۡ لَشَتَّىٰ ٤
Verily, [the ends] you strive for are diverse.
92:5
فَأَمَّا مَنۡ أَعۡطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ ٥
So the one who gives [in charity] and fears [Allāh],
92:6
وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰ ٦
and [in all sincerity] testifies to the Best,1
92:7
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلۡيُسۡرَىٰ ٧
We will indeed make smooth for him the Path to Ease.
92:8
وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسۡتَغۡنَىٰ ٨
But he who is a greedy miser and thinks himself self-sufficient,
92:9
وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰ ٩
and who disbelieves the Best [Message],1
92:10
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلۡعُسۡرَىٰ ١٠
We will indeed make smooth for him the Path to Misery;
92:11
وَمَا يُغۡنِي عَنۡهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ ١١
nor will his wealth profit him when he falls headlong [into the Pit of Fire].
92:12
إِنَّ عَلَيۡنَا لَلۡهُدَىٰ ١٢
Verily, We take [it] upon Us to guide,1
92:13
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلۡأٓخِرَةَ وَٱلۡأُولَىٰ ١٣
And, verily, unto Us [belong] the End and the Beginning [of Life].
92:14
فَأَنذَرۡتُكُمۡ نَارٗا تَلَظَّىٰ ١٤
Therefore, I warn you of a Fire blazing fiercely.
92:15
لَا يَصۡلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلۡأَشۡقَى ١٥
None shall burn therein but the most wicked,
92:16
ٱلَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ١٦
who disbelieved [Truth] and turned his back.
92:17
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلۡأَتۡقَى ١٧
[But] the most fearful [of Allāh] shall be saved from it,
92:18
ٱلَّذِي يُؤۡتِي مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ ١٨
the one who spends his wealth seeking self-purification,
92:19
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعۡمَةٖ تُجۡزَىٰٓ ١٩
and he spends not to return a favour from someone,1
92:20
إِلَّا ٱبۡتِغَآءَ وَجۡهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلۡأَعۡلَىٰ ٢٠
[he has nothing] but the desire to seek for the Pleasure of his Lord, Most-High;
92:21
وَلَسَوۡفَ يَرۡضَىٰ ٢١
and soon will he attain [complete] satisfaction.1
