Al-Lail - Read Quran
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
وَالَّيْلِ اِذَا يَغْشٰىۙ1
By the enshrouding night
وَالنَّهَارِ اِذَا تَجَلّٰىۙ2
by the radiant day
وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْاُنْثٰىۙ3
by His creation of male and female
اِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتّٰىۜ4
The ways you take differ greatly
فَاَمَّا مَنْ اَعْطٰى وَاتَّقٰىۙ5
There is the one who gives, who is mindful of God
وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنٰىۙ6
who testifies to goodness––
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرٰىۜ7
We shall smooth his way towards ease
وَاَمَّا مَنْ بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنٰىۙ8
There is the one who is miserly, who is self-satisfied
وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنٰىۙ9
who denies goodness––
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرٰىۜ10
We shall smooth his way towards hardship
وَمَا يُغْن۪ي عَنْهُ مَالُهُٓ اِذَا تَرَدّٰىۜ11
and his wealth will not help him as he falls
اِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدٰىۘ12
Our part is to provide guidance––
وَاِنَّ لَنَا لَلْاٰخِرَةَ وَالْاُو۫لٰى13
this world and the next belong to Us––
فَاَنْذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظّٰىۚ14
so I warn you about the raging Fire
لَا يَصْلٰيهَٓا اِلَّا الْاَشْقٰىۙ15
in which none but the most wicked one will burn
اَلَّذ۪ي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلّٰىۜ16
who denied [the truth], and turned away
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الْاَتْقٰىۙ17
The most pious one will be spared this––
اَلَّذ۪ي يُؤْت۪ي مَالَهُ يَتَزَكّٰىۚ18
who gives his wealth away as self-purification
وَمَا لِاَحَدٍ عِنْدَهُ مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ تُجْزٰىۙ19
not to return a favour to anyone
اِلَّا ابْتِغَٓاءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ الْاَعْلٰىۚ20
but for the sake of his Lord the Most High––
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضٰى21
and he will be well pleased
