The Enshrouded One, Bundled Up, The Mantled One — Mohammad Shafi Translation – Parallel Quran

1 Prophet enjoined to pray

یَـٰۤأَیُّهَا ٱلۡمُزَّمِّلُ ۝١

O you who are wrapped up [against cold or to go to sleep]

yāayyuhā l-muzamil

قُمِ ٱلَّیۡلَ إِلَّا قَلِیلࣰا ۝٢

Keep up at night, but a little

qumi al-layla illā qalīla

نِّصۡفَهُۥۤ أَوِ ٱنقُصۡ مِنۡهُ قَلِیلًا ۝٣

Half of it [night] or a little les

niṣ'fahu awi unquṣ min'hu qalīla

أَوۡ زِدۡ عَلَیۡهِ وَرَتِّلِ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ تَرۡتِیلًا ۝٤

Or a little more, and put the Quran in proper order

aw zid ʿalayhi warattili l-qur'āna tartīla

إِنَّا سَنُلۡقِی عَلَیۡكَ قَوۡلࣰا ثَقِیلًا ۝٥

Indeed, We are about to send down to you a message of great importance

innā sanul'qī ʿalayka qawlan thaqīla

إِنَّ نَاشِئَةَ ٱلَّیۡلِ هِیَ أَشَدُّ وَطۡءࣰا وَأَقۡوَمُ قِیلًا ۝٦

Indeed, rising up at night is most suitable for impression and retention of words

inna nāshi-ata al-layli hiya ashaddu waṭan wa-aqwamu qīla

إِنَّ لَكَ فِی ٱلنَّهَارِ سَبۡحࣰا طَوِیلࣰا ۝٧

[And] indeed, there are prolonged engagements for you during the day

inna laka fī l-nahāri sabḥan ṭawīla

وَٱذۡكُرِ ٱسۡمَ رَبِّكَ وَتَبَتَّلۡ إِلَیۡهِ تَبۡتِیلࣰا ۝٨

And keep remembering name [attribute] of your Lord, and devote yourself to Him exclusively

wa-udh'kuri is'ma rabbika watabattal ilayhi tabtīla

رَّبُّ ٱلۡمَشۡرِقِ وَٱلۡمَغۡرِبِ لَاۤ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ فَٱتَّخِذۡهُ وَكِیلࣰا ۝٩

He is the Lord of the east and the west! None is worthy of worship but He, so entrust all your affairs to His care

rabbu l-mashriqi wal-maghribi lā ilāha illā huwa fa-ittakhidh'hu wakīla

وَٱصۡبِرۡ عَلَىٰ مَا یَقُولُونَ وَٱهۡجُرۡهُمۡ هَجۡرࣰا جَمِیلࣰا ۝١٠

Be patient on what they say, and graciously leave them alone

wa-iṣ'bir ʿalā mā yaqūlūna wa-uh'jur'hum hajran jamīla

وَذَرۡنِی وَٱلۡمُكَذِّبِینَ أُو۟لِی ٱلنَّعۡمَةِ وَمَهِّلۡهُمۡ قَلِیلًا ۝١١

And leave it to Me, and those who deny the Truth, living a life of comfort! And give them a little respite

wadharnī wal-mukadhibīna ulī l-naʿmati wamahhil'hum qalīla

إِنَّ لَدَیۡنَاۤ أَنكَالࣰا وَجَحِیمࣰا ۝١٢

Certainly indeed, We have for them heavy fetters and a blazing Fire

inna ladaynā ankālan wajaḥīma

وَطَعَامࣰا ذَا غُصَّةࣲ وَعَذَابًا أَلِیمࣰا ۝١٣

And food that chokes, and painful punishment

waṭaʿāman dhā ghuṣṣatin waʿadhāban alīma

یَوۡمَ تَرۡجُفُ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ وَٱلۡجِبَالُ وَكَانَتِ ٱلۡجِبَالُ كَثِیبࣰا مَّهِیلًا ۝١٤

On the Day the earth and mountains shake, and the mountains become sand dunes crumbling down

yawma tarjufu l-arḍu wal-jibālu wakānati l-jibālu kathīban mahīla

إِنَّاۤ أَرۡسَلۡنَاۤ إِلَیۡكُمۡ رَسُولࣰا شَـٰهِدًا عَلَیۡكُمۡ كَمَاۤ أَرۡسَلۡنَاۤ إِلَىٰ فِرۡعَوۡنَ رَسُولࣰا ۝١٥

We have indeed sent a Messenger to you who is a witness over you, just as We sent a Messenger to Pharoah

innā arsalnā ilaykum rasūlan shāhidan ʿalaykum kamā arsalnā ilā fir'ʿawna rasūla

فَعَصَىٰ فِرۡعَوۡنُ ٱلرَّسُولَ فَأَخَذۡنَـٰهُ أَخۡذࣰا وَبِیلࣰا ۝١٦

But Pharoah did not obey the Messenger, so We seized him with a violent seizure

faʿaṣā fir'ʿawnu l-rasūla fa-akhadhnāhu akhdhan wabīla

فَكَیۡفَ تَتَّقُونَ إِن كَفَرۡتُمۡ یَوۡمࣰا یَجۡعَلُ ٱلۡوِلۡدَ ٰنَ شِیبًا ۝١٧

If you deny the Day that will turn the children old, then how can you become righteous

fakayfa tattaqūna in kafartum yawman yajʿalu l-wil'dāna shība

ٱلسَّمَاۤءُ مُنفَطِرُۢ بِهِۦۚ كَانَ وَعۡدُهُۥ مَفۡعُولًا ۝١٨

The sky will break apart whereat, as His promise is fulfilled

al-samāu munfaṭirun bihi kāna waʿduhu mafʿūla

إِنَّ هَـٰذِهِۦ تَذۡكِرَةࣱۖ فَمَن شَاۤءَ ٱتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ سَبِیلًا ۝١٩

This, indeed, is the divine Counsel. So let him who will, take the path to his Lord

inna hādhihi tadhkiratun faman shāa ittakhadha ilā rabbihi sabīla

2 Prayer enjoined on Muslims

۞ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ یَعۡلَمُ أَنَّكَ تَقُومُ أَدۡنَىٰ مِن ثُلُثَیِ ٱلَّیۡلِ وَنِصۡفَهُۥ وَثُلُثَهُۥ وَطَاۤىِٕفَةࣱ مِّنَ ٱلَّذِینَ مَعَكَۚ وَٱللَّهُ یُقَدِّرُ ٱلَّیۡلَ وَٱلنَّهَارَۚ عَلِمَ أَن لَّن تُحۡصُوهُ فَتَابَ عَلَیۡكُمۡۖ فَٱقۡرَءُوا۟ مَا تَیَسَّرَ مِنَ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانِۚ عَلِمَ أَن سَیَكُونُ مِنكُم مَّرۡضَىٰ وَءَاخَرُونَ یَضۡرِبُونَ فِی ٱلۡأَرۡضِ یَبۡتَغُونَ مِن فَضۡلِ ٱللَّهِ وَءَاخَرُونَ یُقَـٰتِلُونَ فِی سَبِیلِ ٱللَّهِۖ فَٱقۡرَءُوا۟ مَا تَیَسَّرَ مِنۡهُۚ وَأَقِیمُوا۟ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتُوا۟ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَأَقۡرِضُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ قَرۡضًا حَسَنࣰاۚ وَمَا تُقَدِّمُوا۟ لِأَنفُسِكُم مِّنۡ خَیۡرࣲ تَجِدُوهُ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ هُوَ خَیۡرࣰا وَأَعۡظَمَ أَجۡرࣰاۚ وَٱسۡتَغۡفِرُوا۟ ٱللَّهَۖ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورࣱ رَّحِیمُۢ ۝٢٠

Your Lord does indeed know that you are up for nearly two-thirds of the night, sometimes one-half of it and sometimes one-third of it, as do a group among your followers. And Allah determines the duration of the night and of the day. He knows that you will not be able to keep count of it [your night vigil], so He has turned to you in mercy. Read [study], then, as much of the Qur'aan as is easy for you. He knows that some among you would be sick and some others would be travelling in search of Allah's bounty [livelihood], and yet others would be fighting for the cause of Allah. So, read, then as much of it [Qur'aan] as is easy for you. And establish the prayer, pay the Zakaat, and give Allah a good loan. And the good deed you send in advance for your souls, you will find it with Allah. That is better and greater in reward. And seek Allah's forgiveness! Allah is indeed Forgiving, Merciful
