English - Chapter 92 - Al-Layl

(I swear) by the night as it veils (the earth in darkness)

And the day, as it unveils

And by Him, Who created (life in pairs,) male and female

In fact your efforts pursue divergent ends

Anyone who gives charity, and fears

And believes in (basic) goodness (and morality)

For such a one, We shall facilitate the easy way, (the way to Islam)

While anyone who acts niggardly, (lives nonchalantly), and considers himself self-sufficient

And rejects the (basic) goodness (and morality)

For such a one, We shall facilitate the path of evil _ (the path that runs contrary to his nature)

How will his wealth avail him when he goes down (into the ditch, his grave)

To grace you (all) with the guidance, is upon Us

Indeed, to Us belongs the afterlife, as well as this one

I warn you (all) about the raging blaze

No one will roast in it, except the most wretched

The one who denied (the truth), and turned away

Far removed from it, would be the righteous one

The one who sought to purify ( his soul), and spent his wealth (in charity)

Not because he had any favors to return

But because he sought the pleasure of his Lord, the most High

(Such a man) would certainly be well pleased
