وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ

Wallaili izaa yaghshaa

By the night as it covers

وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ

Wannahaari izaa tajalla

And the day as it reveals

وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ

Wa maa khalaqaz zakara wal unthaa

And He who created the male and the female

إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ

Inna sa'yakum lashattaa

Your endeavors are indeed diverse

فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ

Fa ammaa man a'taa wattaqaa

As for him who gives and is righteous

وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ

Wa saddaqa bil husnaa

And confirms goodness

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ

Fasanu yassiruhoo lilyusraa

We will ease his way towards ease

وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسْتَغْنَىٰ

Wa ammaa mam bakhila wastaghnaa

But as for him who is stingy and complacent

وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ

Wa kazzaba bil husnaa

And denies goodness

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ

Fasanu yassiruhoo lil'usraa

We will ease his way towards difficulty

وَمَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ

Wa maa yughnee 'anhu maaluhooo izaa taraddaa

And his money will not avail him when he plummets

إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ

Inna 'alainaa lal hudaa

It is upon Us to guide

وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْـَٔاخِرَةَ وَٱلْأُولَىٰ

Wa inna lanaa lal Aakhirata wal oolaa

And to Us belong the Last and the First

فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ

Fa anzartukum naaran talazzaa

I have warned you of a Fierce Blaze

لَا يَصْلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلْأَشْقَى

Laa yaslaahaaa illal ashqaa

None will burn in it except the very wicked

ٱلَّذِى كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ

Allazee kazzaba wa tawallaa

He who denies and turns away

وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَتْقَى

Wa sa yujannnabuhal atqaa

But the devout will avoid it

ٱلَّذِى يُؤْتِى مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ

Allazee yu'tee maalahoo yatazakkaa

He who gives his money to become pure

وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰٓ

Wa maa li ahadin 'indahoo min ni'matin tujzaaa

Seeking no favor in return

إِلَّا ٱبْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ

Illab tighaaa'a wajhi rabbihil a 'laa

Only seeking the acceptance of his Lord, the Most High

وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ

Wa lasawfa yardaa

And he will be satisfied
