وَالنَّهارِ إِذا تَجَلّىٰ

And by the day, as it reveals.

وَما خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالأُنثىٰ

And by He who created the male and the female.

إِنَّ سَعيَكُم لَشَتّىٰ

Surely, your endeavors are diverse.

فَأَمّا مَن أَعطىٰ وَاتَّقىٰ

As for the one who gives and is righteous.

وَصَدَّقَ بِالحُسنىٰ

And who affirms the ultimate goodness.

وَأَمّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاستَغنىٰ

But as for he who is stingy and indifferent.

وَكَذَّبَ بِالحُسنىٰ

And denies the ultimate goodness.

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلعُسرىٰ

We will pave for him the path of hardship.

وَما يُغني عَنهُ مالُهُ إِذا تَرَدّىٰ

And his wealth won’t avail him when he plummets.

إِنَّ عَلَينا لَلهُدىٰ

It’s upon Us to guide.
