The Night (Al-Layl)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
By the night as it envelops; 1 And [by] the day when it appears 2 and by Him Who created the male and the female: 3 Verily, (the ends) ye strive for are diverse. 4 Then as for him who gives away and guards (against evil), 5 And believes in the best [reward], 6 We shall facilitate for him the Way to Bliss. 7 but for him that is a miser, and sufficed, 8 and cries lies to the reward most fair, 9 We shall surely ease him to the Hardship; 10 His riches will not save him when he perisheth. 11 Surely it is for Us to show the Right Way, 12 And indeed, to Us belongs the Hereafter and the first [life]. 13 So, I warn you of the blazing Fire. 14 None shall enter it but the most unhappy, 15 who denied [the truth], and turned away. 16 He will be far away from the most pious. (The first Caliph S. Abu Bakr Siddiq) 17 He who gives his wealth to be purified, 18 And have in their minds no favour from anyone for which a reward is expected in return, 19 seeking only the Face of his Lord, the Most High, 20 He will surely be well-pleased (with him). 21
