English - Yusuf Ali

Sorah Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Verses Number 21

وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ ( 1 )

By the Night as it conceals (the light);

وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ ( 2 )

By the Day as it appears in glory;

وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَىٰ ( 3 )

By (the mystery of) the creation of male and female;-

إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ ( 4 )

Verily, (the ends) ye strive for are diverse.

فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَاتَّقَىٰ ( 5 )

So he who gives (in charity) and fears (Allah),

وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ ( 6 )

And (in all sincerity) testifies to the best,-

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ ( 7 )

We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Bliss.

وَأَمَّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَىٰ ( 8 )

But he who is a greedy miser and thinks himself self-sufficient,

وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ ( 9 )

And gives the lie to the best,-

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ ( 10 )

We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Misery;

وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰ ( 11 )

Nor will his wealth profit him when he falls headlong (into the Pit).

إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ ( 12 )

Verily We take upon Ourselves to guide,

وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْآخِرَةَ وَالْأُولَىٰ ( 13 )

And verily unto Us (belong) the End and the Beginning.

فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ ( 14 )

Therefore do I warn you of a Fire blazing fiercely;

لَا يَصْلَاهَا إِلَّا الْأَشْقَى ( 15 )

None shall reach it but those most unfortunate ones

الَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ( 16 )

Who give the lie to Truth and turn their backs.

وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الْأَتْقَى ( 17 )

But those most devoted to Allah shall be removed far from it,-

الَّذِي يُؤْتِي مَالَهُ يَتَزَكَّىٰ ( 18 )

Those who spend their wealth for increase in self-purification,

وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰ ( 19 )

And have in their minds no favour from anyone for which a reward is expected in return,

إِلَّا ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ الْأَعْلَىٰ ( 20 )

But only the desire to seek for the Countenance of their Lord Most High;

وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ ( 21 )

And soon will they attain (complete) satisfaction.
