English - Chapter 73 - Al-Muzzammil

O you cloaked one

Half of it, or a little less than that

Or a little more, and arrange the Quran in its arrangement

We will place upon you a saying which is heavy

The time of the night is more effective and better for study

For you have many duties during the day

And remember the name of your Lord, and devote to Him completely

The Lord of the east and the west, there is no god but He, so take Him as a protector

And be patient over what they say, and depart from them in a good manner

And leave Me to deal with the deniers who have been given the good things, and give them time for a while

We have with Us chains and a raging fire

And food that chokes, and a painful retribution

The Day the Earth and the mountains shake, and the mountains become crumbling sand

We have sent to you a messenger as a witness over you, as We have sent to Pharaoh a messenger

But Pharaoh disobeyed the messenger, so We took him in a severe manner

So how can you be righteous if you have rejected, on a Day when the children become grey haired

The heaven will crack with it. His promise is always delivered

This is a reminder, so let he who wishes take a path to his Lord

Your Lord knows that you rise a little less than two thirds of the night, and half of it, and one third of it, as well as a group of those who are with you. And God measures the night and the day. He knows that you will not be able to keep-up, so He pardons you. So study what is made easy of the Quran. He knows that there will be sick among you, and others that venture out in the land seeking from God's bounty, and others who are fighting in the cause of God, so study what you can of it. And hold the contact-method and contribute towards betterment and give God a loan of righteousness. And whatever you put forth yourselves, you will find it with God, for it is better and a greater reward. And seek God's forgiveness, for God is Forgiving, Merciful
