The Night

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

[92:1]

By the night enshrouding

[92:2]

And the day resplendent

[92:3]

And Him Who hath created male and female,

[92:4]

Lo! your effort is dispersed (toward divers ends).

[92:5]

As for him who giveth and is dutiful (toward Allah)

[92:6]

And believeth in goodness;

[92:7]

Surely We will ease his way unto the state of ease.

[92:8]

But as for him who hoardeth and deemeth himself independent,

[92:9]

And disbelieveth in goodness;

[92:10]

Surely We will ease his way unto adversity.

[92:11]

His riches will not save him when he perisheth.

[92:12]

Lo! Ours it is (to give) the guidance

[92:13]

And lo! unto Us belong the latter portion and the former.

[92:14]

Therefor have I warned you of the flaming Fire

[92:15]

Which only the most wretched must endure,

[92:16]

He who denieth and turneth away.

[92:17]

Far removed from it will be the righteous

[92:18]

Who giveth his wealth that he may grow (in goodness).

[92:19]

And none hath with him any favour for reward,

[92:20]

Except as seeking (to fulfil) the purpose of his Lord Most High.

[92:21]

He verily will be content.
