وَٱلۡفَجۡرِ

By the dawn

وَلَيَالٍ عَشۡرࣲ‏

And [by] ten nights

وَٱلشَّفۡعِ وَٱلۡوَتۡرِ

And [by] the even [number] and the odd

وَٱلَّيۡلِ إِذَا يَسۡرِ

And [by] the night when it passes

هَلۡ فِي ذَٰلِكَ قَسَمࣱ لِّذِي حِجۡرٍ

Is there [not] in [all] that an oath [sufficient] for one of perception

أَلَمۡ تَرَ كَيۡفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِعَادٍ

Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with 'Aad

إِرَمَ ذَاتِ ٱلۡعِمَادِ

[With] Iram - who had lofty pillars

ٱلَّتِي لَمۡ يُخۡلَقۡ مِثۡلُهَا فِي ٱلۡبِلَٰدِ

The likes of whom had never been created in the land

وَثَمُودَ ٱلَّذِينَ جَابُواْ ٱلصَّخۡرَ بِٱلۡوَادِ

And [with] Thamud, who carved out the rocks in the valley

وَفِرۡعَوۡنَ ذِي ٱلۡأَوۡتَادِ

And [with] Pharaoh, owner of the stakes

ٱلَّذِينَ طَغَوۡاْ فِي ٱلۡبِلَٰدِ

[All of] whom oppressed within the lands

فَأَكۡثَرُواْ فِيهَا ٱلۡفَسَادَ

And increased therein the corruption

فَصَبَّ عَلَيۡهِمۡ رَبُّكَ سَوۡطَ عَذَابٍ

So your Lord poured upon them a scourge of punishment

إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَبِٱلۡمِرۡصَادِ

Indeed, your Lord is in observation

فَأَمَّا ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ إِذَا مَا ٱبۡتَلَىٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ فَأَكۡرَمَهُۥ وَنَعَّمَهُۥ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّيٓ أَكۡرَمَنِ

And as for man, when his Lord tries him and [thus] is generous to him and favors him, he says, "My Lord has honored me

وَأَمَّآ إِذَا مَا ٱبۡتَلَىٰهُ فَقَدَرَ عَلَيۡهِ رِزۡقَهُۥ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّيٓ أَهَٰنَنِ

But when He tries him and restricts his provision, he says, "My Lord has humiliated me

كَلَّاۖ بَل لَّا تُكۡرِمُونَ ٱلۡيَتِيمَ

No! But you do not honor the orphan

وَلَا تَحَٰٓضُّونَ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلۡمِسۡكِينِ

And you do not encourage one another to feed the poor

وَتَأۡكُلُونَ ٱلتُّرَاثَ أَكۡلࣰ ا لَّمࣰّ ا

And you consume inheritance, devouring [it] altogether

وَتُحِبُّونَ ٱلۡمَالَ حُبࣰّ ا جَمࣰّ ا

And you love wealth with immense love

كَلَّآۖ إِذَا دُكَّتِ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ دَكࣰّ ا دَكࣰّ ا

No! When the earth has been leveled - pounded and crushed

وَجَآءَ رَبُّكَ وَٱلۡمَلَكُ صَفࣰّ ا صَفࣰّ ا

And your Lord has come and the angels, rank upon rank

وَجِاْيٓءَ يَوۡمَئِذِۭ بِجَهَنَّمَۚ يَوۡمَئِذࣲ يَتَذَكَّرُ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ وَأَنَّىٰ لَهُ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ

And brought [within view], that Day, is Hell - that Day, man will remember, but what good to him will be the remembrance

يَقُولُ يَٰلَيۡتَنِي قَدَّمۡتُ لِحَيَاتِي

He will say, "Oh, I wish I had sent ahead [some good] for my life

فَيَوۡمَئِذࣲ لَّا يُعَذِّبُ عَذَابَهُۥٓ أَحَدࣱ‏

So on that Day, none will punish [as severely] as His punishment

وَلَا يُوثِقُ وَثَاقَهُۥٓ أَحَدࣱ‏

And none will bind [as severely] as His binding [of the evildoers]

يَٰٓأَيَّتُهَا ٱلنَّفۡسُ ٱلۡمُطۡمَئِنَّةُ

[To the righteous it will be said], "O reassured soul

ٱرۡجِعِيٓ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكِ رَاضِيَةࣰ مَّرۡضِيَّةࣰ‏

Return to your Lord, well-pleased and pleasing [to Him]

فَٱدۡخُلِي فِي عِبَٰدِي

And enter among My [righteous] servants

وَٱدۡخُلِي جَنَّتِي

And enter My Paradise
