وَٱلْفَجْرِ

Wal-Fajr

By the daybreak

وَلَيَالٍ عَشْرٍ

Wa layaalin 'ashr

And ten nights

وَٱلشَّفْعِ وَٱلْوَتْرِ

Wash shaf'i wal watr

And the even and the odd

وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَسْرِ

Wallaili izaa yasr

And the night as it recedes

هَلْ فِى ذَٰلِكَ قَسَمٌ لِّذِى حِجْرٍ

Hal fee zaalika qasamul lizee hijr

Is there in this an oath for a rational person

أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِعَادٍ

Alam tara kaifa fa'ala rabbuka bi'aad

Have you not seen how your Lord dealt with Aad

إِرَمَ ذَاتِ ٱلْعِمَادِ

Iramaa zaatil 'imaad

Erum of the pillars

ٱلَّتِى لَمْ يُخْلَقْ مِثْلُهَا فِى ٱلْبِلَـٰدِ

Allatee lam yukhlaq misluhaa fil bilaad

The like of which was never created in the land

وَثَمُودَ ٱلَّذِينَ جَابُوا۟ ٱلصَّخْرَ بِٱلْوَادِ

Wa samoodal lazeena jaabus sakhra bil waad

And Thamood—those who carved the rocks in the valley

وَفِرْعَوْنَ ذِى ٱلْأَوْتَادِ

Wa fir'awna zil awtaad

And Pharaoh of the Stakes

ٱلَّذِينَ طَغَوْا۟ فِى ٱلْبِلَـٰدِ

Allazeena taghaw fil bilaad

Those who committed excesses in the lands

فَأَكْثَرُوا۟ فِيهَا ٱلْفَسَادَ

Fa aksaroo feehal fasaad

And spread much corruption therein

فَصَبَّ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّكَ سَوْطَ عَذَابٍ

Fasabba 'alaihim Rabbuka sawta 'azaab

So your Lord poured down upon them a scourge of punishment

إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَبِٱلْمِرْصَادِ

Inna Rabbaka labil mirsaad

Your Lord is on the lookout

فَأَمَّا ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ إِذَا مَا ٱبْتَلَىٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ فَأَكْرَمَهُۥ وَنَعَّمَهُۥ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّىٓ أَكْرَمَنِ

Fa ammal insaanu izaa mab talaahu Rabbuhoo fa akramahoo wa na' 'amahoo fa yaqoolu Rabbeee akraman

As for man, whenever his Lord tests him, and honors him, and prospers him, he says, “My Lord has honored me.”

وَأَمَّآ إِذَا مَا ٱبْتَلَىٰهُ فَقَدَرَ عَلَيْهِ رِزْقَهُۥ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّىٓ أَهَـٰنَنِ

Wa ammaaa izaa mabtalaahu faqadara 'alaihi rizqahoo fa yaqoolu Rabbeee ahaanan

But whenever He tests him, and restricts his livelihood for him, he says, “My Lord has insulted me.”

كَلَّا ۖ بَل لَّا تُكْرِمُونَ ٱلْيَتِيمَ

Kalla bal laa tukrimooo nal yateem

Not at all. But you do not honor the orphan

وَلَا تَحَـٰٓضُّونَ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلْمِسْكِينِ

Wa laa tahaaaddoona 'alaata'aamil miskeen

And you do not urge the feeding of the poor

وَتَأْكُلُونَ ٱلتُّرَاثَ أَكْلًا لَّمًّا

Wa taakuloonat turaasa aklal lammaa

And you devour inheritance with all greed

وَتُحِبُّونَ ٱلْمَالَ حُبًّا جَمًّا

Wa tuhibboonal maala hubban jammaa

And you love wealth with immense love

كَلَّآ إِذَا دُكَّتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ دَكًّا دَكًّا

Kallaaa izaaa dukkatil ardu dakkan dakka

No—when the earth is leveled, pounded, and crushed

وَجَآءَ رَبُّكَ وَٱلْمَلَكُ صَفًّا صَفًّا

Wa jaaa'a Rabbuka wal malaku saffan saffaa

And your Lord comes, with the angels, row after row

وَجِا۟ىٓءَ يَوْمَئِذٍۭ بِجَهَنَّمَ ۚ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَتَذَكَّرُ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ وَأَنَّىٰ لَهُ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ

Wa jeee'a yawma'izim bi jahannnam; Yawma 'iziny yatazakkarul insaanu wa annaa lahuz zikraa

And on that Day, Hell is brought forward. On that Day, man will remember, but how will remembrance avail him

يَقُولُ يَـٰلَيْتَنِى قَدَّمْتُ لِحَيَاتِى

Yaqoolu yaa laitanee qaddamtu lihayaatee

He will say, “If only I had forwarded for my life.”

فَيَوْمَئِذٍ لَّا يُعَذِّبُ عَذَابَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌ

Fa Yawma izil laa yu'azzibu 'azaabahooo ahad

On that Day, none will punish as He punishes

وَلَا يُوثِقُ وَثَاقَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌ

Wa laa yoosiqu wasaaqa hooo ahad

And none will shackle as He shackles

يَـٰٓأَيَّتُهَا ٱلنَّفْسُ ٱلْمُطْمَئِنَّةُ

Yaaa ayyatuhan nafsul mutma 'innah

But as for you, O tranquil soul

ٱرْجِعِىٓ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكِ رَاضِيَةً مَّرْضِيَّةً

Irji'eee ilaa Rabbiki raadiyatam mardiyyah

Return to your Lord, pleased and accepted

فَٱدْخُلِى فِى عِبَـٰدِى

Fadkhulee fee 'ibaadee

Enter among My servants

وَٱدْخُلِى جَنَّتِى

Wadkhulee jannatee

Enter My Paradise
