| 1 | By the Night as it conceals ( the light ); | ||
| 2 | By the Day as it appears in glory; | ||
| 3 | By ( the mystery of ) the creation of male and female | ||
| 4 | Verily ( the ends ) ye strive for are diverse. | ||
| 5 | So he who gives ( in charity ) and fears ( Allah ). | ||
| 6 | And ( in all sincerity ) testifies to the Best | ||
| 7 | We will indeed make smooth for him the path to Bliss. | ||
| 8 | But he who is a greedy miser and thinks himself self-sufficient. | ||
| 9 | And gives the lie to the Best | ||
| 10 | We will indeed make smooth for him the Path to Misery; | ||
| 11 | Nor will his wealth profit him when he falls headlong ( into the Pit ). | ||
| 12 | Verily We take upon Ourselves to guide. | ||
| 13 | And verily unto Us ( belong ) the End and the Beginning. | ||
| 14 | Therefore do I warn you of a Fire blazing fiercely; | ||
| 15 | None shall reach it but those most unfortunate ones. | ||
| 16 | Who give the lie to Truth and turn their backs. | ||
| 17 | But those most devoted to Allah shall be removed far from it | ||
| 18 | Those who spend their wealth for increase in self-purification. | ||
| 19 | And have in their minds no favor from anyone for which a reward is expected in return. | ||
| 20 | But only the desire to seek for the countenance of their Lord Most High. | ||
| 21 | And soon will they attain ( complete ) satisfaction. | ||
