Al-'Adiyat
The Courser
بِسۡمِ اللهِ الرَّحۡمٰنِ الرَّحِيۡمِ
In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
وَالۡعٰدِيٰتِ ضَبۡحًا ۙ
By the racers, panting,1
فَالۡمُوۡرِيٰتِ قَدۡحًا ۙ
And the producers of sparks [when] striking1
فَالۡمُغِيۡرٰتِ صُبۡحًا ۙ
And the chargers at dawn,1
فَاَثَرۡنَ بِهٖ نَقۡعًا ۙ
Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,
فَوَسَطۡنَ بِهٖ جَمۡعًا ۙ
Arriving thereby in the center1 collectively,
اِنَّ الۡاِنۡسَانَ لِرَبِّهٖ لَـكَنُوۡدٌ ۚ
Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.
وَاِنَّهٗ عَلٰى ذٰلِكَ لَشَهِيۡدٌ ۚ
And indeed, he is to that a witness.1
وَاِنَّهٗ لِحُبِّ الۡخَيۡرِ لَشَدِيۡدٌ ؕ
And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.
اَفَلَا يَعۡلَمُ اِذَا بُعۡثِرَ مَا فِى الۡقُبُوۡرِۙ
But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered
وَحُصِّلَ مَا فِى الصُّدُوۡرِۙ
And that within the breasts is obtained,1
اِنَّ رَبَّهُمۡ بِهِمۡ يَوۡمَٮِٕذٍ لَّخَبِيۡرٌ
Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Aware.1
