By the Night as it conceals (the light);
وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ ( 2 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 2
By the Day as it appears in glory;
وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَىٰ ( 3 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 3
By (the mystery of) the creation of male and female;-
إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ ( 4 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 4
Verily, (the ends) ye strive for are diverse.
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَاتَّقَىٰ ( 5 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 5
So he who gives (in charity) and fears (Allah),
وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ ( 6 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 6
And (in all sincerity) testifies to the best,-
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ ( 7 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 7
We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Bliss.
وَأَمَّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَىٰ ( 8 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 8
But he who is a greedy miser and thinks himself self-sufficient,
وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ ( 9 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 9
And gives the lie to the best,-
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ ( 10 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 10
We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Misery;
وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰ ( 11 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 11
Nor will his wealth profit him when he falls headlong (into the Pit).
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ ( 12 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 12
Verily We take upon Ourselves to guide,
وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْآخِرَةَ وَالْأُولَىٰ ( 13 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 13
And verily unto Us (belong) the End and the Beginning.
فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ ( 14 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 14
Therefore do I warn you of a Fire blazing fiercely;
لَا يَصْلَاهَا إِلَّا الْأَشْقَى ( 15 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 15
None shall reach it but those most unfortunate ones
الَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ( 16 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 16
Who give the lie to Truth and turn their backs.
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الْأَتْقَى ( 17 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 17
But those most devoted to Allah shall be removed far from it,-
الَّذِي يُؤْتِي مَالَهُ يَتَزَكَّىٰ ( 18 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 18
Those who spend their wealth for increase in self-purification,
وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰ ( 19 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 19
And have in their minds no favour from anyone for which a reward is expected in return,
إِلَّا ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ الْأَعْلَىٰ ( 20 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 20
But only the desire to seek for the Countenance of their Lord Most High;
وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ ( 21 ) Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Ayaa 21
And soon will they attain (complete) satisfaction.

  • The Bible led me to IslamThis book is a compilation of excerpts from several books addressing Christianity that I had the pleasure of reading before and after I became a Muslim. After becoming a Muslim, I continued to read books about Christianity because the "skin" of Christianity was hard to cast off after 28 years in the religion; years that almost led me to becoming the minister of an African Methodist Episcopal (A.M.E.) church In Great Falls, Montana.
