وَٱلْفَجْرِ

Wal-fajr

By the dawn

وَلَيَالٍ عَشْرٍۢ

Wa layaalin 'ashr

And by ten nights

وَٱلشَّفْعِ وَٱلْوَتْرِ

Wash-shaf'i wal-watr

And by the even and the odd

وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَسْرِ

Wallayli idhaa yasr

And by the night when it passes

هَلْ فِى ذَٰلِكَ قَسَمٌۭ لِّذِى حِجْرٍ

Hal fee dhaalika qasamun lidhee hijr

Is there in that an oath for one of sense?

أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِعَادٍ

Alam tara kayfa fa'ala rabbuka bi'aad

Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with Aad?

إِرَمَ ذَاتِ ٱلْعِمَادِ

Irama dhaatil-'imaad

With Iram who had lofty pillars

ٱلَّتِى لَمْ يُخْلَقْ مِثْلُهَا فِى ٱلْبِلَـٰدِ

Allatee lam yukhlaq mithluhaa fil-bilaad

The likes of whom had never been created in the lands?

وَثَمُودَ ٱلَّذِينَ جَابُوا۟ ٱلصَّخْرَ بِٱلْوَادِ

Wa thamoodal-ladheena jaaboos-sakhra bil-waad

And with Thamud who carved out the rocks in the valley?

وَفِرْعَوْنَ ذِى ٱلْأَوْتَادِ

Wa fir'awna dhil-awtaad

And with Pharaoh, owner of the stakes?

ٱلَّذِينَ طَغَوْا۟ فِى ٱلْبِلَـٰدِ

Alladheena taghaw fil-bilaad

Who transgressed in the lands

فَأَكْثَرُوا۟ فِيهَا ٱلْفَسَادَ

Fa-aktharoo feehal-fasaad

And increased therein the corruption

فَصَبَّ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّكَ سَوْطَ عَذَابٍ

Fasabba 'alayhim rabbuka sawta 'adhaab

So your Lord poured upon them a scourge of punishment

إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَبِٱلْمِرْصَادِ

Inna rabbaka labill-mirsaad

Indeed your Lord is in observation

فَأَمَّا ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ إِذَا مَا ٱبْتَلَىٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ فَأَكْرَمَهُۥ وَنَعَّمَهُۥ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّىٓ أَكْرَمَنِ

Fa-ammal-insaanu idhaa mab-talaahu rabbuhu fa-akramahu wa na'amahu fayaqoolu rabbee akraman

As for man, when his Lord tries him and is generous to him and favors him, he says: My Lord has honored me

وَأَمَّآ إِذَا مَا ٱبْتَلَىٰهُ فَقَدَرَ عَلَيْهِ رِزْقَهُۥ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّىٓ أَهَـٰنَنِ

Wa ammaa idhaa mab-talaahu faqadara 'alayhi rizqahu fayaqoolu rabbee ahaanani

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

كَلَّا ۖ بَل لَّا تُكْرِمُونَ ٱلْيَتِيمَ

Kallaa bal laa tukrimoonal-yateem

No! But you do not honor the orphan

وَلَا تَحَـٰٓضُّونَ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلْمِسْكِينِ

Wa laa tahaaaddoona 'alaa ta'aamil-miskeen

And you do not encourage one another to feed the poor

وَتَأْكُلُونَ ٱلتُّرَاثَ أَكْلًۭا لَّمًّۭا

Wa ta'kuloonat-turaatha aklan lammaa

And you consume inheritance, devouring it all

وَتُحِبُّونَ ٱلْمَالَ حُبًّۭا جَمًّۭا

Wa tuhibboonal-maala hubban jammaa

And you love wealth with immense love

كَلَّآ إِذَا دُكَّتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ دَكًّۭا دَكًّۭا

Kallaa idhaa dukkkatil-ardu dakkan dakkaa

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

وَجَآءَ رَبُّكَ وَٱلْمَلَكُ صَفًّۭا صَفًّۭا

Wa jaa'a rabbuka wal-malaku saffan saffaa

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

وَجِا۟ىٓءَ يَوْمَئِذٍۭ بِجَهَنَّمَ ۚ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ يَتَذَكَّرُ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ وَأَنَّىٰ لَهُ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ

Wa jee'a yawma'idhin bijahannama yawma'idhin yatadhakkaruul-insaanu wa annaa lahudh-dhikraa

And Hellfire is brought on that Day — on that Day man will remember, but what good to him will be the remembrance?

يَقُولُ يَـٰلَيْتَنِى قَدَّمْتُ لِحَيَاتِى

Yaqoolu yaa laytanee qaddamtu lihayaatee

He will say: Oh, I wish I had sent ahead something for my life

فَيَوْمَئِذٍۢ لَّا يُعَذِّبُ عَذَابَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌۭ

Fayawma'idhin laa yu'adhdhibu 'adhabahu ahadun

So on that Day none will punish as He punishes

وَلَا يُوثِقُ وَثَاقَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌۭ

Wa laa yoothiqu wathaqahu ahadun

And none will bind as He binds

يَـٰٓأَيَّتُهَا ٱلنَّفْسُ ٱلْمُطْمَئِنَّةُ

Yaa ayyatuhan-nafsul-mutma'innah

O reassured soul

ٱرْجِعِىٓ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكِ رَاضِيَةًۭ مَّرْضِيَّةًۭ

Irji'ee ilaa rabbiki raadiyatan mardiyyah

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

فَٱدْخُلِى فِى عِبَـٰدِى

Fadkhulee fee 'ibaadee

And enter among My servants

وَٱدْخُلِى جَنَّتِى

Wadkhulee jannatee

And enter My Paradise
