Ads by Muslim Ad Network
89:1
By the break of dawn
89:2
By ten nights
89:3
By the even
and the odd
89:4
By the night as it traverses
89:5
Is there in that an oath for one of objective sense?
89:6
Have
you
not seen how
your
Rabb
dealt with
Aad
89:7
of
Iram
, the many-columned [settlement]—
89:8
one which had none other of its like created in the territories.
89:9
And the
Thamūd
who cut through boulders by the valley
89:10
and Pharaoh, owner of the anchor-blocks—
89:11
The ones who transgressed beyond bounds across the territories
89:12
and proliferated therein that rot of disharmony and discord?
89:13
Then,
your
Rabb
unleashed on them a scourge of punishment
89:14
Surely,
your
Rabb
is ever with vigilant oversight.
89:15
So, as for man, whenever his
Rabb
tests him— if it be by being generous to him and blessing him— he says, “My
Rabb
has honored me.”
89:16
But when it be that
HE
tests him by limiting his provision— he says, “My
Rabb
has put me down.”
89:17
Not ever so! Rather, you are not generous to the orphan
89:18
Nor do you promote the feeding of the poor
89:19
And you devour the inheritance, in an indiscriminate devouring!
89:20
And you love material wealth with abounding love.
89:21
No! When the earth is levelled to a flat, without contours
89:22
and
your
Rabb
unveils [
HIS
Majesty] and the angels, row upon row
89:23
and
Jahannam
that day is brought to bear— that day man will genuinely reflect. And why and for what is the Remembrance for him [that day]?
89:24
He says, “Ah how I wish I had contributed forward for my [Real] life.”
89:25
Then, on that day not will anyone assign
HIS
punishment.
89:26
and not will anyone bind
HIS
bond.
89:27
O tranquil soul,
89:28
come back to
your
Rabb
content and accepted—
89:29
Enter among
MY
devotees,
89:30
and enter
MY
Paradise.
