تَدعو مَن أَدبَرَ وَتَوَلّىٰ

Calling those who turned their backs and fled.

وَجَمَعَ فَأَوعىٰ

And hoarded and stored away.

إِنَّ الإِنسانَ خُلِقَ هَلوعًا

Man was created anxious.

إِذا مَسَّهُ الشَّرُّ جَزوعًا

Agitated when misfortune touches him.

وَإِذا مَسَّهُ الخَيرُ مَنوعًا

And tight-fisted when good reaches him.

الَّذينَ هُم عَلىٰ صَلاتِهِم دائِمونَ

Who remain constant in their prayers.

وَالَّذينَ في أَموالِهِم حَقٌّ مَعلومٌ

And in whose wealth is a known right.

لِلسّائِلِ وَالمَحرومِ

For the asker and the deprived.

وَالَّذينَ يُصَدِّقونَ بِيَومِ الدّينِ

And those who affirm the Day of Judgment.

وَالَّذينَ هُم مِن عَذابِ رَبِّهِم مُشفِقونَ

And those who fear their Lord’s punishment.
