Ash-Sharh

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ أَلَمْ نَشْرَحْ لَكَ صَدْرَكَ

(O Prophet), Did We not lay open your breast

وَوَضَعْنَا عَنْكَ وِزْرَكَ

and relieve you of the burden

الَّذِي أَنْقَضَ ظَهْرَكَ

that had well-nigh broken your back?

وَرَفَعْنَا لَكَ ذِكْرَكَ

And did We not exalt your fame?

فَإِنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا

Indeed, there is ease with hardship.

إِنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا

Most certainly, there is ease with hardship.

فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ فَانْصَبْ

So, whenever you are free, strive in devotion,

وَإِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَارْغَبْ

and turn to your Lord with longing.
