وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ ١
By the night when it covers
الليل
Al-Layl
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ ٢
And [by] the day when it appears
وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ ٣
And [by] He who created the male and female,
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ ٤
Indeed, your efforts are diverse.
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ ٥
As for he who gives and fears Allāh
وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ ٦
And believes in the best [reward],
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ ٧
We will ease him toward ease.
وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسْتَغْنَىٰ ٨
But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need
وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلْحُسْنَىٰ ٩
And denies the best [reward],
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ ١٠
We will ease him toward difficulty.
وَمَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ ١١
And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?
