The Dawn -Al-Fajr |
|
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful |
|
1 |
|
[ 89. 1 ] By the dawn |
|
2 |
|
[ 89. 2 ] and ten nights ( of pilgrimage or the last ten days of Ramadan ), |
|
3 |
|
[ 89. 3 ] by the even, and the odd, |
|
4 |
|
[ 89. 4 ] by the night when it journeys on! |
|
5 |
|
[ 89. 5 ] Is there in that an oath for the mindful? |
|
6 |
|
[ 89. 6 ] Have you not heard how your Lord dealt with Aad? |
|
7 |
|
[ 89. 7 ] of the columned ( city ) of Iram, |
|
8 |
|
[ 89. 8 ] the like of which was never created in the countries? |
|
9 |
|
[ 89. 9 ] And Thamood, who hewed out the rocks of the valley? |
|
10 |
|
[ 89. 10 ] And Pharaoh, of the pegs ( impaling his victims )? |
|
11 |
|
[ 89. 11 ] They were tyrants in the land |
|
12 |
|
[ 89. 12 ] and exceeded in corruption therein. |
|
13 |
|
[ 89. 13 ] ( Therefore ) your Lord let loose upon them a scourge of punishment; |
|
14 |
|
[ 89. 14 ] indeed, your Lord is ever watchful. |
|
15 |
|
[ 89. 15 ] As for man, when his Lord tests him by honoring him and favoring him, he says: 'My Lord, has honored me.' |
|
16 |
|
[ 89. 16 ] But when He tests him by restricting his provision, he says: 'My Lord has humiliated me.' |
|
17 |
|
[ 89. 17 ] No! But you show no good to the orphan, |
|
18 |
|
[ 89. 18 ] nor do you urge one another to feed the needy. |
|
19 |
|
[ 89. 19 ] and you devour the inheritance with greed, |
|
20 |
|
[ 89. 20 ] and you ardently love wealth. |
|
21 |
|
[ 89. 21 ] No! But when the earth quakes and is pounded, |
|
22 |
|
[ 89. 22 ] and your Lord comes with the angels, rank upon rank, |
|
23 |
|
[ 89. 23 ] and Gehenna ( Hell ) is brought near on that Day the human will remember, and how shall the Reminder be for him? |
|
24 |
|
[ 89. 24 ] He will say: 'Would that I had forwarded ( good works ) for my life!' |
|
25 |
|
[ 89. 25 ] But on that Day none will punish as He ( Allah ) will punish, |
|
26 |
|
[ 89. 26 ] nor will any bind as He binds. |
|
27 |
|
[ 89. 27 ] O satisfied soul, |
|
28 |
|
[ 89. 28 ] return to your Lord wellpleased, wellpleasing. |
|
29 |
|
[ 89. 29 ] Join My worshipers and |
|
30 |
|
[ 89. 30 ] enter My Paradise! |
