Sahih International

By the dawn

Sahih International

And [by] ten nights1

Sahih International

And [by] the even [number] and the odd

Sahih International

And [by] the night when it passes,

Sahih International

Is there [not] in [all] that an oath [sufficient] for one of perception?1

Sahih International

Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with ʿAad -

Sahih International

[With] Iram1 - who had lofty pillars,2

Sahih International

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

Sahih International

And [with] Thamūd, who carved out the rocks in the valley?

Sahih International

And [with] Pharaoh, owner of the stakes?1

Sahih International

[All of] whom oppressed within the lands

Sahih International

And increased therein the corruption.

Sahih International

So your Lord poured upon them a scourge of punishment.

Sahih International

Indeed, your Lord is in observation.

Sahih International

And as for man, when his Lord tries him and [thus] is generous to him and favors him, he says, "My Lord has honored me."1

Sahih International

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

Sahih International

No!1 But you do not honor the orphan

Sahih International

And you do not encourage one another to feed the poor.

Sahih International

And you consume inheritance, devouring [it] altogether,1

Sahih International

And you love wealth with immense love.

Sahih International

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

Sahih International

And your Lord has come1 and the angels, rank upon rank,

Sahih International

And brought [within view], that Day, is Hell - that Day, man will remember, but how [i.e., what good] to him will be the remembrance?

Sahih International

He will say, "Oh, I wish I had sent ahead [some good] for my life."1

Sahih International

So on that Day, none will punish [as severely] as His punishment,

Sahih International

And none will bind [as severely] as His binding [of the evildoers].

Sahih International

[To the righteous it will be said], "O reassured soul,

Sahih International

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

Sahih International

And enter among My [righteous] servants

Sahih International

And enter My Paradise."
