الليل

By the night when it covers ^[1]

And [by] the day when it appears ^[2]

And [by] He who created the male and female, ^[3]

Indeed, your efforts are diverse. ^[4]

As for he who gives and fears Allah ^[5]

And believes in the best [reward], ^[6]

We will ease him toward ease. ^[7]

But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need ^[8]

And denies the best [reward], ^[9]

We will ease him toward difficulty. ^[10]

And what will his wealth avail him when he falls? ^[11]

Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance. ^[12]

And indeed, to Us belongs the Hereafter and the first [life]. ^[13]

So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing. ^[14]

None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one. ^[15]

Who had denied and turned away. ^[16]

But the righteous one will avoid it - ^[17]

[He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself ^[18]

And not [giving] for anyone who has [done him] a favor to be rewarded ^[19]

But only seeking the countenance of his Lord, Most High. ^[20]
