92. Al-Lail - The Night

1By oath of the night when it covers
2And by oath of the day when it shines
3And by oath of the One Who created the male and the female.
4Indeed your efforts differ.
5So for one who gave and practised piety
6And believed the best matter to be true
7So We will very soon provide him ease.
8And for him who hoarded wealth and remained carefree,
9And denied the best matter,
10So We will very soon provide him hardship.
11His wealth will not avail him when he falls into ruin.
12Indeed guiding is upon Us.
13And indeed the Hereafter and this world both belong to Us.
14I therefore warn you of the fire that is ablaze.
15None except the most wicked will enter it.
16The one who denied and turned away.
17He will be far away from the most pious. (The first Caliph S. Abu Bakr Siddiq)
18Who gives his wealth in order to be pure.
19And no one has done a favour to him, for which he should be compensated.
20He desires only to please his Lord, the Supreme.
21And indeed, soon he will be very pleased.
