سُورَةُ اللَّيۡلِ

By the night when it covers

Wallaili izaa yaghshaa

And [by] the day when it appears

Wannahaari izaa tajalla

And [by] He who created the male and female,

Wa maa khalaqaz zakara wal unthaa

Indeed, your efforts are diverse.

Inna sa'yakum lashattaa

As for he who gives and fears Allah

Fa ammaa man a'taa wattaqaa

And believes in the best [reward],

Wa saddaqa bil husnaa

We will ease him toward ease.

Fasanu yassiruhoo lilyusraa

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

Wa ammaa mam bakhila wastaghnaa

And denies the best [reward],

Wa kazzaba bil husnaa

We will ease him toward difficulty.

Fasanu yassiruhoo lil'usraa

And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?

Wa maa yughnee 'anhu maaluhooo izaa taraddaa

Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance.

Inna 'alainaa lal hudaa

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

Wa inna lanaa lal Aakhirata wal oolaa

So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing.

Fa anzartukum naaran talazzaa

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

Laa yaslaahaaa illal ashqaa

Who had denied and turned away.

Allazee kazzaba wa tawallaa

But the righteous one will avoid it -

Wa sa yujannnabuhal atqaa

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

Allazee yu'tee maalahoo yatazakkaa

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

Wa maa li ahadin 'indahoo min ni'matin tujzaaa

But only seeking the countenance of his Lord, Most High.

Illab tighaaa'a wajhi rabbihil a 'laa

And he is going to be satisfied.

Wa lasawfa yardaa
