89:1 | | By the Dawn |
89:2 | | And the Ten Nights |
89:3 | | And the Even and the Odd |
89:4 | | And the night when it moves on to its close |
89:5 | | Is there not in it strong evidence for one possessed of understanding |
89:6 | | Hast thou not see how thy Lord dealt with Ad |
89:7 | | The tribe if Iram, possessors of lofty buildings |
89:8 | | The like of whom have not been created in these parts |
89:9 | | And with Thamud who hewed out rocks in the valley |
89:10 | | And with Pharaoh, lord of vast hosts |
89:11 | | Who committed excesses in the cities |
89:12 | | And wrought much corruption therein |
89:13 | | Thy Lord, then, let loose on them the scourge of punishment |
89:14 | | Surely, thy Lord is ever on the watch |
89:15 | | As for man, when his Lord tries him and honours him and bestows favours on him, he says, `My Lord has honoured me. |
89:16 | | But when HE tries and straitens for him his means of subsistence, he says, `My Lord has disgraced me. |
89:17 | | Nay, but you honour not the orphan |
89:18 | | And urge not one another to feed the poor |
89:19 | | And devour the heritage of other people, devouring greedily and wholly |
89:20 | | And you love wealth with exceeding love |
89:21 | | Hearken ! when the earth is completely broken into pieces |
89:22 | | And thy Lord comes attended by angels, rank on rank |
89:23 | | And Hell is brought near that day; on that day man will remember, but of what avail shall that remembrance be to him |
89:24 | | He will say, `O, would that I had sent on some good works for my life here ! |
89:25 | | So on that day none can punish like unto HIS punishment |
89:26 | | And none can bind like unto HIS binding |
89:27 | | O, thou soul at peace |
89:28 | | Return to thy Lord, thou well-pleased with HIM and HE well-pleased with thee |
89:29 | | So enter thou among MY chosen servants |
89:30 | | And enter thou MY Garden |
