By the heaven and the Morning Star
Wassamaaa'i wattaariq
- Ah, what will tell thee what the Morning Star is!
Wa maaa adraaka mattaariq
- The piercing Star!
Annajmus saaqib
No human soul but hath a guardian over it.
In kullu nafsil lammaa 'alaihaa haafiz
So let man consider from what he is created.
Fal yanzuril insaanu mimma khuliq
He is created from a gushing fluid
Khuliqa mim maaa'in daafiq
That issued from between the loins and ribs.
Yakhruju mim bainissulbi wat taraaa'ib
Lo! He verily is Able to return him (unto life)
Innahoo 'alaa raj'ihee laqaadir
On the day when hidden thoughts shall be searched out.
Yawma tublas saraaa'ir
Then will he have no might nor any helper.
Famaa lahoo min quwwatinw wa laa naasir
By the heaven which giveth the returning rain,
Wassamaaa'i zaatir raj'
And the earth which splitteth (with the growth of trees and plants)
Wal ardi zaatis sad'
Lo! this (Qur'an) is a conclusive word,
Innahoo laqawlun fasl
It is no pleasantry.
Wa maa huwa bil hazl
Lo! they plot a plot (against thee, O Muhammad)
Innahum yakeedoona kaidaa
And I plot a plot (against them).
Wa akeedu kaidaa
So give a respite to the disbelievers. Deal thou gently with them for a while.
Famahhilil kaafireena amhilhum ruwaidaa
