English - Chapter 100 - Al-Adiyat

Translation by Muhammad Asad — Permalink

Oh, the chargers that run panting

sparks of fire striking

rushing to assault at morn

thereby raising clouds of dust

thereby storming [blindly] into any host

VERILY, towards his Sustainer man is most ungrateful

and to this, behold, he [himself] bears witness indeed

for, verily, to the love of wealth is he most ardently devoted

But does he not know that [on the Last Day,] when all that is in the graves is raised and brought out

and all that is [hidden] in men's hearts is bared

that on that Day their Sustainer [will show that He] has always been fully aware of them
