The Night (Al-Layl)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
By the night as it envelops; 1 and by the day when it unveils. 2 And Him who created the male and female, 3 Verily your endeavour is diverse. 4 Yet he who gives to others and has fear, 5 and believes in the truth of what is right, 6 Unto him therefore We shall indeed make easy the path to ease. 7 And as for him who is niggardly and considers himself free from need (of Allah), 8 and he belied the finest 9 We will make smooth for him the path for evil; 10 his wealth shall not avail him when he perishes. 11 Verify on us is the guidance 12 And verily unto Us (belong) the End and the Beginning. 13 Therefor have I warned you of the flaming Fire 14 None except the most wicked will enter it. 15 who denied [the truth], and turned away. 16 and from which the most godfearing shall be removed, 17 He who gives his wealth to be purified, 18 And no one has with him any boon for which he should be rewarded, 19 Other than seeking the glory of his Lord, most high, 20 And he is going to be satisfied. 21
