Did We not relieve your heart for you [Prophet]
Translation 1260
One of the 240 subdivisions of the Quran (quarter of a Hizb)
Did We not relieve your heart for you [Prophet]
Translation 1260
and remove the burden
Translation 1260
that weighed so heavily on your back
Translation 1260
and raise your reputation high
Translation 1260
So truly where there is hardship there is also ease
Translation 1260
truly where there is hardship there is also ease
Translation 1260
The moment you are freed [of one task] work on
Translation 1260
and turn to your Lord for everything
Translation 1260
By the fig, by the olive
Translation 1260
by Mount Sinai
Translation 1260
by this safe town
Translation 1260
We create man in the finest state
Translation 1260
then reduce him to the lowest of the low
Translation 1260
except those who believe and do good deeds––
Translation 1260
they will have an unfailing reward. After this, what makes you [man] deny the Judgement
Translation 1260
Is God not the most decisive of judges
Translation 1260
Read! In the name of your Lord who created
Translation 1260
He created manfrom a clinging form
Translation 1260
Read! Your Lord is the Most Bountiful One
Translation 1260
who taught by [means of] the pen
Translation 1260
who taught man what he did not know
Translation 1260
But man exceeds all bounds
Translation 1260
when he thinks he is self-sufficient
Translation 1260
[Prophet], all will return to your Lord
Translation 1260
Have you seen the man who forbids
Translation 1260
[Our] servant to pray
Translation 1260
Have you seen whether he is rightly guided
Translation 1260
or encourages true piety
Translation 1260
Have you seen whether he denies the truth and turns away from it
Translation 1260
Does he not realize that God sees all
Translation 1260
No! If he does not stop, We shall drag him by his forehead––
Translation 1260
his lying, sinful forehead
Translation 1260
Let him summon his comrades
Translation 1260
We shall summon the guards of Hell
Translation 1260
No! Do not obey him [Prophet]: bow down in worship and draw close
Translation 1260
We sent it down on the Night of Glory
Translation 1260
What will explain to you what that Night of Glory is
Translation 1260
The Night of Glory is better than a thousand months
Translation 1260
on that night the angels and the Spirit descend again and again with their Lord’s permission on every task
Translation 1260
[there is] peace that night until the break of dawn
Translation 1260
Those who disbelieve among the People of the Book and the idolaters were not about to change their ways until they were sent clear evidence
Translation 1260
a messenger from God, reading out pages [blessed with] purity
Translation 1260
containing true scriptures
Translation 1260
[Yet] those who were given the Scripture became divided only after they were sent [such] clear evi-dence
Translation 1260
though all they are ordered to do is worship God alone, sincerely devoting their religion to Him as people of true faith, keep up the prayer, and pay the prescribed alms, for that is the true religion
Translation 1260
Those who disbelieve among the People of the Book and the idolaters will have the Fire of Hell, there to remain. They are the worst of creation
Translation 1260
Those who believe and do good deeds are the best of creation
Translation 1260
Their reward with their Lord is everlasting Gardens graced with flowing streams, where they will stay forever. God is well pleased with them and they with Him. All this is for those who stand in awe of their Lord
Translation 1260
When the earth is shaken violently in its [last] quaking
Translation 1260
when the earth throws out its burdens
Translation 1260
when man cries, ‘What is happening to it?’
Translation 1260
on that Day, it will tell all
Translation 1260
because your Lord will inspire it [to do so]
Translation 1260
On that Day, people will come forward in separate groups to be shown their deeds
Translation 1260
whoever has done an atom’s-weight of good will see it
Translation 1260
but whoever has done an atom’s-weight of evil will see that
Translation 1260
By the charging steeds that pant
Translation 1260
and strike sparks with their hooves
Translation 1260
who make dawn raids
Translation 1260
raising a cloud of dust
Translation 1260
and plunging into the midst of the enemy
Translation 1260
man is ungrateful to his Lord––
Translation 1260
and He is witness to this––
Translation 1260
he is truly excessive in his love of wealth
Translation 1260
