بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَالْعَادِيَاتِ ضَبْحًا
By the snorting chargers,
سورة العاديات
The Chargers • 11 ayet • Mekki
Translated by A. J. Arberry
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَالْعَادِيَاتِ ضَبْحًا
By the snorting chargers,
فَالْمُورِيَاتِ قَدْحًا
by the strikers of fire,
فَالْمُغِيرَاتِ صُبْحًا
by the dawn-raiders
فَأَثَرْنَ بِهِ نَقْعًا
blazing a trail of dust,
فَوَسَطْنَ بِهِ جَمْعًا
cleaving there with a host!
إِنَّ الْإِنْسَانَ لِرَبِّهِ لَكَنُودٌ
Surely Man is ungrateful to his Lord,
وَإِنَّهُ عَلَىٰ ذَٰلِكَ لَشَهِيدٌ
and surely he is a witness against that!
وَإِنَّهُ لِحُبِّ الْخَيْرِ لَشَدِيدٌ
Surely he is passionate in his love for good things.
۞ أَفَلَا يَعْلَمُ إِذَا بُعْثِرَ مَا فِي الْقُبُورِ
Knows he not that when that which is in the tombs is over-thrown,
وَحُصِّلَ مَا فِي الصُّدُورِ
and that which is in the breasts is brought out --
إِنَّ رَبَّهُمْ بِهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَخَبِيرٌ
surely on that day their Lord shall be aware of them!
