| | Dr. Kamal Omar rendition of Surah The Dawn, Daybreak(al-Fajr)
--- |
|---|
| 89:1 | | Al-Fajr (the break of dawn) acts as a witness |
| 89:2 | | and (also) the night, ten (in number) |
| 89:3 | | and the even (number), and the odd (number) |
| 89:4 | | and the (retreating) night when it departs |
| 89:5 | | Is in (all) this an evidence or testimony for a possessor of wisdom |
| 89:6 | | Have you not seen how your Nourisher-Sustainer dealt with ‘Ad (people) — |
| 89:7 | | (of the capital-city of) Iram, possessing lofty high-rise buildings |
| 89:8 | | such as their like are not constructed (any where) in the cities |
| 89:9 | | and (with) Samud (people), those who hewed and cut rocks in the valley |
| 89:10 | | and (with) Firaun, famous by the pyramids |
| 89:11 | | those people who transgressed beyond limits throughout the cities |
| 89:12 | | and they tremendously increased in those (cities) Al-Fasad |
| 89:13 | | So your Nourisher-Sustainer let fall over them the whip of punishment |
| 89:14 | | Surely, your Nourisher-Sustainer is indeed (ever) in Al-Mirsad |
| 89:15 | | As for the human being: when his Nourisher-Sustainer put him to trial and tribulation, and He bestowed upon him honour and bestowed upon him luxuries — then he will say: 'My Rabb has given me honour. |
| 89:16 | | And so, when, whatever He put him to test and trial: so He bestowed over him his provision just according to bare needs — then he will say: 'My Rabb has humiliated (and disgraced) me. |
| 89:17 | | By no means! Nay, you (on your side) do not treat Al-Yatim with kindness and generosity |
| 89:18 | | and urge not for (providing) food to the indigent |
| 89:19 | | and you devour inheritance — a devouring, absolute and excessive |
| 89:20 | | and you love the wealth with intense love |
| 89:21 | | By no means (it is going to benefit you)! When the (planet) earth is broken up to a (complete) breahead of state up, an (extensive) break-up |
| 89:22 | | And has come your Nourisher-Sustainer, and (also) the angels in rows, (regular) rows |
| 89:23 | | And the Hell is brought (very near) that Day. That Day the human being brings to mind the Message (of Allah). And how Az-Zikrah (‘The Admonition’,) benefits him (at such a stage) |
| 89:24 | | He will say: “Alas! Would that I had sent in advance (righteous deeds) for my life (in the new world)! |
| 89:25 | | So on that Day — does not give punishment, similar to His punishment, any one |
| 89:26 | | And does not seize, similar to His seizure, any one |
| 89:27 | | (It will be announced to the Believing, practical Muslims): “O you Nafs in complete satisfaction and serenity |
| 89:28 | | Come back to your Nourisher-Sustainer — well-pleased (by yourself, and) well-pleasing (unto Allah) |
| 89:29 | | So (now) enter among My Ibad |
| 89:30 | | and enter you My Paradise!” |
