The Night — Dr Kamal Omar Translation – Parallel Quran

1 The Night

وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ

The night acts as a witness when it envelops (and conceals from view many things)

Waallayli itha yaghsha

وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ

and the day-time when it makes (many things) bright

Waalnnahari itha tajalla

وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَىٰ

and whatever He created in pairs as the male and the female

Wama khalaqa alththakara waal-ontha

إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ

Surely, your endeavour is indeed diverse (in directions and targets)

Inna saAAyakum lashatta

فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَاتَّقَىٰ

So as for that who gave (i.e., spent as desired in the ordainments of Al-Kitab), and remained obedient (to Allah)

Faamma man aAAta waittaqa

وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ

and testified to the best (law in Al-Kitab by adopting it)

Wasaddaqa bialhusna

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ

So, soon We provide him facility for Al-Yusrah

Fasanuyassiruhu lilyusra

وَأَمَّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَىٰ

And as for that who behaved niggardly and remained unconcerned

Waamma man bakhila waistaghna

وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ

and belied the best (law in Al-Kitab)

Wakaththaba bialhusna

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ

then soon, We let him slide to Al-Usrah

Fasanuyassiruhu lilAAusra

وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰ

And shall not benefit him his wealth when he has slided to destruction

Wama yughnee AAanhu maluhu itha taradda

إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ

Verily, on Us indeed (is the duty to provide) the True Guidance

Inna AAalayna lalhuda

وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْآخِرَةَ وَالْأُولَىٰ

And truly for Us (is) indeed (the ownership of) the Hereafter and the initial, present (world)

Wa-inna lana lal-akhirata waal-oola

فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ

So I have warned you of (the) Fire — it is blazing fiercely

Faanthartukum naran talaththa

لَا يَصْلَاهَا إِلَّا الْأَشْقَى

Does not enter it except Al-Ashqa

La yaslaha illa al-ashqa

الَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ

that one who denied and turned away (from Al-Kitab)

Allathee kaththaba watawalla

وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الْأَتْقَى

And soon — Al-Atqa shall be kept away from it —

Wasayujannabuha al-atqa

الَّذِي يُؤْتِي مَالَهُ يَتَزَكَّىٰ

that one who spends his wealth: he sanctifies (himself)

Allathee yu/tee malahu yatazakka

وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰ

and with him (i.e., Al-Atqa) there is not for any one out of a reward, which may be paid (by him, as due) in return (for any good some one has done to this pious and obedient person) —

Wama li-ahadin AAindahu min niAAmatin tujza

إِلَّا ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ الْأَعْلَىٰ

except a desire to seek the attention of his Nourisher-Sustainer, the Most High

Illa ibtighaa wajhi rabbihi al-aAAla

وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ

And surely, very soon he will be pleased (in the Hereafter)
