Translation: Surah Al-'Adiyat (The Courser) سُورَة العاديات

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

i

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

وَالْعَادِيَاتِ ضَبْحًا ١ i

By the racers, panting, (1)

فَالْمُورِيَاتِ قَدْحًا ٢ i

And the producers of sparks [when] striking (2)

فَالْمُغِيرَاتِ صُبْحًا ٣ i

And the chargers at dawn, (3)

فَأَثَرْنَ بِهِ نَقْعًا ٤ i

Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust, (4)

فَوَسَطْنَ بِهِ جَمْعًا ٥ i

Arriving thereby in the center collectively, (5)

إِنَّ الْإِنْسَانَ لِرَبِّهِ لَكَنُودٌ ٦ i

Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful. (6)

وَإِنَّهُ عَلَىٰ ذَٰلِكَ لَشَهِيدٌ ٧ i

And indeed, he is to that a witness. (7)

وَإِنَّهُ لِحُبِّ الْخَيْرِ لَشَدِيدٌ ٨ i

And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense. (8)

أَفَلَا يَعْلَمُ إِذَا بُعْثِرَ مَا فِي الْقُبُورِ ٩ i

But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered (9)

وَحُصِّلَ مَا فِي الصُّدُورِ ١٠ i

And that within the breasts is obtained, (10)

إِنَّ رَبَّهُمْ بِهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَخَبِيرٌ ١١ i

Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Acquainted. (11)
