Quran 89, Al-Fajr (The Dawn) ⓘ

89:1By the Dawn

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَالْفَجْرِ

89:2And ten nights,

وَلَيَالٍ عَشْرٍ

89:3And the Even and the Odd,

وَالشَّفْعِ وَالْوَتْرِ

89:4And the night when it departeth,

وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَسْرِ

89:5There surely is an oath for thinking man.

هَلْ فِي ذَلِكَ قَسَمٌ لِذِي حِجْرٍ

89:6Dost thou not consider how thy Lord dealt with (the tribe of) A'ad,

أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِعَادٍ

89:7With many-columned Iram,

إِرَمَ ذَاتِ الْعِمَادِ

89:8The like of which was not created in the lands;

الَّتِي لَمْ يُخْلَقْ مِثْلُهَا فِي الْبِلَادِ

89:9And with (the tribe of) Thamud, who clove the rocks in the valley;

وَثَمُودَ الَّذِينَ جَابُوا الصَّخْرَ بِالْوَادِ

89:10And with Pharaoh, firm of might,

وَفِرْعَوْنَ ذِي الْأَوْتَادِ

89:11Who (all) were rebellious (to Allah) in these lands,

الَّذِينَ طَغَوْا فِي الْبِلَادِ

89:12And multiplied iniquity therein?

فَأَكْثَرُوا فِيهَا الْفَسَادَ

89:13Therefore thy Lord poured on them the disaster of His punishment.

فَصَبَّ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّكَ سَوْطَ عَذَابٍ

89:14Lo! thy Lord is ever watchful.

إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَبِالْمِرْصَادِ

89:15As for man, whenever his Lord trieth him by honouring him, and is gracious unto him, he saith: My Lord honoureth me.

فَأَمَّا الْإِنْسَانُ إِذَا مَا ابْتَلَاهُ رَبُّهُ فَأَكْرَمَهُ وَنَعَّمَهُ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّي أَكْرَمَنِ

89:16But whenever He trieth him by straitening his means of life, he saith: My Lord despiseth me.

وَأَمَّا إِذَا مَا ابْتَلَاهُ فَقَدَرَ عَلَيْهِ رِزْقَهُ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّي أَهَانَنِ

89:17Nay, but ye (for your part) honour not the orphan

كَلَّا بَلْ لَا تُكْرِمُونَ الْيَتِيمَ

89:18And urge not on the feeding of the poor.

وَلَا تَحَاضُّونَ عَلَى طَعَامِ الْمِسْكِينِ

89:19And ye devour heritages with devouring greed.

وَتَأْكُلُونَ التُّرَاثَ أَكْلًا لَمًّا

89:20And love wealth with abounding love.

وَتُحِبُّونَ الْمَالَ حُبًّا جَمًّا

89:21Nay, but when the earth is ground to atoms, grinding, grinding,

كَلَّا إِذَا دُكَّتِ الْأَرْضُ دَكًّا دَكًّا

89:22And thy Lord shall come with angels, rank on rank,

وَجَاءَ رَبُّكَ وَالْمَلَكُ صَفًّا صَفًّا

89:23And hell is brought near that day; on that day man will remember, but how will the remembrance (then avail him)?

وَجِيءَ يَوْمَئِذٍ بِجَهَنَّمَ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَتَذَكَّرُ الْإِنْسَانُ وَأَنَّى لَهُ الذِّكْرَى

89:24He will say: Ah, would that I had sent before me (some provision) for my life!

يَقُولُ يَا لَيْتَنِي قَدَّمْتُ لِحَيَاتِي

89:25None punisheth as He will punish on that day!

فَيَوْمَئِذٍ لَا يُعَذِّبُ عَذَابَهُ أَحَدٌ

89:26None bindeth as He then will bind.

وَلَا يُوثِقُ وَثَاقَهُ أَحَدٌ

89:27But ah! thou soul at peace!

يَا أَيَّتُهَا النَّفْسُ الْمُطْمَئِنَّةُ

89:28Return unto thy Lord, content in His good pleasure!

ارْجِعِي إِلَى رَبِّكِ رَاضِيَةً مَرْضِيَّةً

89:29Enter thou among My bondmen!

فَادْخُلِي فِي عِبَادِي

89:30Enter thou My Garden!

وَادْخُلِي جَنَّتِي
