92:2And the day resplendent
وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالۡاُنۡثٰٓىۙ ٣
92:3And Him Who hath created male and female,
اِنَّ سَعۡيَكُمۡ لَشَتّٰىؕ ٤
92:4Lo! your effort is dispersed (toward diverse ends).
فَاَمَّا مَنۡ اَعۡطٰى وَاتَّقٰىۙ ٥
92:5As for him who giveth and is dutiful (toward Allah)
وَصَدَّقَ بِالۡحُسۡنٰىۙ ٦
92:6And believeth in goodness;
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهٗ لِلۡيُسۡرٰىؕ ٧
92:7Surely We will ease his way unto the state of ease.
وَاَمَّا مَنۡۢ بَخِلَ وَاسۡتَغۡنٰىۙ ٨

وَكَذَّبَ بِالۡحُسۡنٰىۙ ٩

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهٗ لِلۡعُسۡرٰىؕ ١٠

اِنَّ عَلَيۡنَا لَـلۡهُدٰىۖ ١٢
92:12Lo! Ours it is (to give) the guidance
وَاِنَّ لَـنَا لَـلۡاٰخِرَةَ وَالۡاُوۡلٰى ١٣

فَاَنۡذَرۡتُكُمۡ نَارًا تَلَظّٰىۚ ١٤
92:14Therefor have I warned you of the flaming Fire
لَا يَصۡلٰٮهَاۤ اِلَّا الۡاَشۡقَىۙ ١٥
92:15Which only the most wretched must endure,
الَّذِىۡ كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلّٰىؕ ١٦
92:16He who denieth and turneth away.
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الۡاَتۡقَىۙ ١٧
92:17Far removed from it will be the righteous
الَّذِىۡ يُؤۡتِىۡ مَالَهٗ يَتَزَكّٰىۚ ١٨
92:18Who giveth his wealth that he may grow (in goodness).
وَمَا لِاَحَدٍ عِنۡدَهٗ مِنۡ نِّعۡمَةٍ تُجۡزٰٓىۙ ١٩
92:19And none hath with him any favour for reward,
اِلَّا ابۡتِغَآءَ وَجۡهِ رَبِّهِ الۡاَعۡلٰىۚ ٢٠
92:20Except as seeking (to fulfil) the purpose of his Lord Most High.
وَلَسَوۡفَ يَرۡضٰى ٢١
92:21He verily will be content.
