by the Even and the Odd

WaalshshafAAi waalwatri

وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَسْرِ

by the night when it departs

Waallayli itha yasri

هَلْ فِي ذَٰلِكَ قَسَمٌ لِّذِي حِجْرٍ

Is there an oath in that for one possessing intellect

Hal fee thalika qasamun lithee hijrin

أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِعَادٍ

Ali Quli Qara'i

Have you not regarded how your Lord dealt with [the people of] ‘a€d

Alam tara kayfa faAAala rabbuka biAAadin

إِرَمَ ذَاتِ الْعِمَادِ

Ali Quli Qara'i

[and] Iram, [the city] of the pillars

Irama thati alAAimadi

الَّتِي لَمْ يُخْلَقْ مِثْلُهَا فِي الْبِلَادِ

Ali Quli Qara'i

the like of which was not created among cities

Allatee lam yukhlaq mithluha fee albiladi

وَثَمُودَ الَّذِينَ جَابُوا الصَّخْرَ بِالْوَادِ

Ali Quli Qara'i

Wathamooda allatheena jaboo alssakhra bialwadi

وَفِرْعَوْنَ ذِي الْأَوْتَادِ

and Pharaoh, the impaler

الَّذِينَ طَغَوْا فِي الْبِلَادِ

—those who rebelled [against Allah] in their citie

Allatheena taghaw fee albiladi

فَأَكْثَرُوا فِيهَا الْفَسَادَ

and caused much corruption in them

Faaktharoo feeha alfasada

فَصَبَّ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّكَ سَوْطَ عَذَابٍ

Ali Quli Qara'i

so your Lord poured on them lashes of punishment

Fasabba AAalayhim rabbuka sawta AAathabin

إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَبِالْمِرْصَادِ

Ali Quli Qara'i

Indeed your Lord is in ambush

Inna rabbaka labialmirsadi

فَأَمَّا الْإِنسَانُ إِذَا مَا ابْتَلَاهُ رَبُّهُ فَأَكْرَمَهُ وَنَعَّمَهُ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّي أَكْرَمَنِ

Ali Quli Qara'i

As for man, whenever his Lord tests him and grants him honour and blesses him, he says, ‘My Lord has honoured me.’

Faamma al-insanu itha ma ibtalahu rabbuhu faakramahu wanaAAAAamahu fayaqoolu rabbee akramani

وَأَمَّا إِذَا مَا ابْتَلَاهُ فَقَدَرَ عَلَيْهِ رِزْقَهُ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّي أَهَانَنِ

Ali Quli Qara'i

But when He tests him and tightens for him his provision, he says, ‘My Lord has humiliated me.’

Waamma itha ma ibtalahu faqadara AAalayhi rizqahu fayaqoolu rabbee ahanani

كَلَّا بَل لَّا تُكْرِمُونَ الْيَتِيمَ

Ali Quli Qara'i

No indeed! Rather you do not honour the orphan

Kalla bal la tukrimoona alyateema

وَلَا تَحَاضُّونَ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ الْمِسْكِينِ

Ali Quli Qara'i

and do not urge the feeding of the needy

Wala tahaddoona AAala taAAami almiskeeni

وَتَأْكُلُونَ التُّرَاثَ أَكْلًا لَّمًّا

Ali Quli Qara'i

and you eat the inheritance rapaciously

Wata/kuloona altturatha aklan lamman

وَتُحِبُّونَ الْمَالَ حُبًّا جَمًّا

Ali Quli Qara'i

and you love wealth with much fondness

Watuhibboona almala hubban jamman

كَلَّا إِذَا دُكَّتِ الْأَرْضُ دَكًّا دَكًّا

Ali Quli Qara'i

No indeed! When the earth is levelled to a plain

Kalla itha dukkati al-ardu dakkan dakkan

وَجَاءَ رَبُّكَ وَالْمَلَكُ صَفًّا صَفًّا

Ali Quli Qara'i

and your Lord and the angels arrive in ranks

Wajaa rabbuka waalmalaku saffan saffan

وَجِيءَ يَوْمَئِذٍ بِجَهَنَّمَ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَتَذَكَّرُ الْإِنسَانُ وَأَنَّىٰ لَهُ الذِّكْرَىٰ

Ali Quli Qara'i

the day when hell is brought [near], on that day man will take admonition but what will the admonition avail him

Wajee-a yawma-ithin bijahannama yawma-ithin yatathakkaru al-insanu waanna lahu alththikra

يَقُولُ يَا لَيْتَنِي قَدَّمْتُ لِحَيَاتِي

Ali Quli Qara'i

He will say, ‘Alas, had I sent ahead for my life!’

Yaqoolu ya laytanee qaddamtu lihayatee

فَيَوْمَئِذٍ لَّا يُعَذِّبُ عَذَابَهُ أَحَدٌ

Ali Quli Qara'i

On that day none shall punish as He punishes

Fayawma-ithin la yuAAaththibu AAathabahu ahadun

وَلَا يُوثِقُ وَثَاقَهُ أَحَدٌ

Ali Quli Qara'i

and none shall bind as He binds

Wala yoothiqu wathaqahu ahadun

يَا أَيَّتُهَا النَّفْسُ الْمُطْمَئِنَّةُ

Ali Quli Qara'i

‘O soul at peace

Ya ayyatuha alnnafsu almutma-innatu

ارْجِعِي إِلَىٰ رَبِّكِ رَاضِيَةً مَّرْضِيَّةً

Ali Quli Qara'i

Return to your Lord, pleased, pleasing

IrjiAAee ila rabbiki radiyatan mardiyyatan

فَادْخُلِي فِي عِبَادِي

Ali Quli Qara'i

Then enter among My servants

Faodkhulee fee AAibadee

وَادْخُلِي جَنَّتِي

Ali Quli Qara'i

And enter My paradise!’

Waodkhulee jannatee
