89: The Dawn
|
|
| 89:1
By the Dawn |
|
| 89:2
And ten nights, |
|
| 89:3
And the Even and the Odd, |
|
| 89:4
And the night when it departeth, |
|
| 89:5
There surely is an oath for thinking man. |
|
| 89:6
Dost thou not consider how thy Lord dealt with (the tribe of) A'ad, |
|
| 89:7
With many-columned Iram, |
|
| 89:8
The like of which was not created in the lands; |
|
| 89:9
And with (the tribe of) Thamud, who clove the rocks in the valley; |
|
| 89:10
And with Pharaoh, firm of might, |
|
| 89:11
Who (all) were rebellious (to Allah) in these lands, |
Allah poured the disaster of His punishment upon those who rebelled against him.
|
| 89:12
And multiplied iniquity therein ?
|
| 89:13
Therefore thy Lord poured on them the disaster of His punishment. |
|
| 89:14
Lo! thy Lord is ever watchful. |
|
| 89:15
As for man, whenever his Lord trieth him by honouring him, and is gracious unto him, he saith: My Lord honoureth me. |
|
| 89:16
But whenever He trieth him by straitening his means of life, he saith: My Lord despiseth me. |
|
| 89:17
Nay, but ye (for your part) honour not the orphan |
|
| 89:18
And urge not on the feeding of the poor. |
|
| 89:19
And ye devour heritages with devouring greed. |
|
| 89:20
And love wealth with abounding love. |
|
| 89:21
Nay, but when the earth is ground to atoms, grinding, grinding, |
|
| 89:22
And thy Lord shall come with angels, rank on rank, |
|
| 89:23
And hell is brought near that day; on that day man will remember, but how will the remembrance (then avail him) ? |
|
| 89:24
He will say: Ah, would that I had sent before me (some provision) for my life! |
|
| 89:25
None punisheth as He will punish on that day! |
|
| 89:26
None bindeth as He then will bind. |
|
| 89:27
But ah! thou soul at peace! |
|
| 89:28
Return unto thy Lord, content in His good pleasure! |
|
| 89:29
Enter thou among My bondmen! |
|
| 89:30
Enter thou My Garden! |
