The Night (Al-Layl)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
By the night, when it envelops, 1 and by the day as it appears radiantly, 2 and by the creation of the male and the female. 3 Your striving is most surely (directed to) various (ends). 4 Then as for him who gives away and guards (against evil), 5 And believes in Al-Husna. 6 Unto him therefore We shall indeed make easy the path to ease. 7 but for him that is a miser, and sufficed, 8 and denied the Truth of goodness: 9 We shall pave his way to hardship, 10 And what will his wealth avail him when he falls? 11 BEHOLD, it is indeed for Us to grace [you] with guidance; 12 and, behold, Ours is [the dominion over] the life to come as well as [over] this earlier part [of your life]: 13 Now I have warned you of a Fire that flames, 14 none shall enter it but the most wicked, 15 even he who cried lies, and turned away; 16 But save him who fears 17 who spend for the cause of God and purify themselves. 18 And is under no one's obligation to return his favour, 19 except the pleasure of their Lord, the Most High 20 And he is going to be satisfied. 21
