By the Daybreak

By the Daybreak
Translation 1260
by the Ten Nights
Translation 1260
by the even and the odd
Translation 1260
by the passing night––
Translation 1260
is this oath strong enough for a rational person
Translation 1260
Have you [Prophet] considered how your Lord dealt with [the people] of 'Ad
Translation 1260
of Iram, [the city] of lofty pillars
Translation 1260
whose like has never been made in any land
Translation 1260
and the Thamud, who hewed into the rocks in the valley
Translation 1260
and the mighty and powerful Pharaoh
Translation 1260
All of them committed excesses in their lands
Translation 1260
and spread corruption there
Translation 1260
your Lord let a scourge of punishment loose on them
Translation 1260
Your Lord is always watchful
Translation 1260
[The nature of] man is that, when his Lord tries him through honour and blessings, he says, ‘My Lord has honoured me,’
Translation 1260
but when He tries him through the restriction of his provision, he says, ‘My Lord has humiliated me.’
Translation 1260
No indeed! You [people] do not honour orphans
Translation 1260
you do not urge one another to feed the poor
Translation 1260
you consume inheritance greedily
Translation 1260
and you love wealth with a passion
Translation 1260
No indeed! When the earth is pounded to dust, pounded and pounded
Translation 1260
when your Lord comes with the angels, rank upon rank
Translation 1260
when Hell is that Day brought near- on that Day man will take heed, but what good will that be to him then
Translation 1260
He will say, ‘Would that I had provided for this life to come!’
Translation 1260
On that Day, no one will punish as He punishes
Translation 1260
