The Night (Al-Layl)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
By oath of the night when it covers 1 and by the day when it breaks in its glory, 2 and by Him Who created the male and the female: 3 Indeed, your efforts are diverse. 4 As for him who gave out his wealth (for Allah's sake) and abstained (from disobeying Him), 5 And accepts the best, 6 We will pave his way to ease. 7 but for him that is a miser, and sufficed, 8 And who belieth the Good, 9 We shall facilitate for him the way to Hardship, 10 nor will his wealth profit him when he falls [into the pit]. 11 Indeed guiding is upon Us. 12 And indeed the Hereafter and this world both belong to Us. 13 and so I warn you of the raging fire 14 None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one. 15 The one who denied and turned away. 16 He will be far away from the most pious. (The first Caliph S. Abu Bakr Siddiq) 17 Those who spend their wealth for increase in self-purification, 18 And is under no one's obligation to return his favour, 19 Except only the desire to seek the Countenance of his Lord, the Most High; 20 And he is going to be satisfied. 21
