بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلطَّارِقِ

Wassamaaa'i wattaariq

By the sky and the night comer -

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلطَّارِقُ

Wa maaa adraaka mattaariq

And what can make you know what is the night comer?

ٱلنَّجْمُ ٱلثَّاقِبُ

Annajmus saaqib

It is the piercing star -

إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍۢ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌۭ

In kullu nafsil lammaa 'alaihaa haafiz

There is no soul but that it has over it a protector.

فَلْيَنظُرِ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ

Fal yanzuril insaanu mimma khuliq

So let man observe from what he was created.

خُلِقَ مِن مَّآءٍۢ دَافِقٍۢ

Khuliqa mim maaa'in daafiq

He was created from a fluid, ejected,

يَخْرُجُ مِنۢ بَيْنِ ٱلصُّلْبِ وَٱلتَّرَآئِبِ

Yakhruju mim bainissulbi wat taraaa'ib

Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs.

إِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِۦ لَقَادِرٌۭ

Innahoo 'alaa raj'ihee laqaadir

Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able.

يَوْمَ تُبْلَى ٱلسَّرَآئِرُ

Yawma tublas saraaa'ir

The Day when secrets will be put on trial,

فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن قُوَّةٍۢ وَلَا نَاصِرٍۢ

Famaa lahoo min quwwatinw wa laa naasir

Then man will have no power or any helper.

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلرَّجْعِ

Wassamaaa'i zaatir raj'

By the sky which returns [rain]

وَٱلْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ ٱلصَّدْعِ

Wal ardi zaatis sad'

And [by] the earth which cracks open,

إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلٌۭ فَصْلٌۭ

Innahoo laqawlun fasl

Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement,

وَمَا هُوَ بِٱلْهَزْلِ

Wa maa huwa bil hazl

And it is not amusement.

إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًۭا

Innahum yakeedoona kaidaa

Indeed, they are planning a plan,

وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًۭا

Wa akeedu kaidaa

But I am planning a plan.

فَمَهِّلِ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًۢا

Famahhilil kaafireena amhilhum ruwaidaa

So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile.

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ سَبِّحِ ٱسْمَ رَبِّكَ ٱلْأَعْلَى

Sabbihisma Rabbikal A'laa

Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High,

ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ

Allazee khalaqa fasawwaa

Who created and proportioned

وَٱلَّذِى قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ

Wallazee qaddara fahadaa

And who destined and [then] guided

وَٱلَّذِىٓ أَخْرَجَ ٱلْمَرْعَىٰ

Wallazeee akhrajal mar'aa

And who brings out the pasture

فَجَعَلَهُۥ غُثَآءً أَحْوَىٰ

Faja'alahoo ghusaaa'an ahwaa

And [then] makes it black stubble.

سَنُقْرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰٓ

Sanuqri'uka falaa tansaaa

We will make you recite, [O Muhammad], and you will not forget,

إِلَّا مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ يَعْلَمُ ٱلْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ

Illaa maa shaaa'al laah; innahoo ya'lamul jahra wa maa yakhfaa

Except what Allah should will. Indeed, He knows what is declared and what is hidden.

وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ

Wa nu-yassiruka lilyusraa

And We will ease you toward ease.

فَذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ

Fazakkir in nafa'atizzikraa

So remind, if the reminder should benefit;

سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰ

Sa yazzakkaru maiyakhshaa

He who fears [Allah] will be reminded.
