The Night (Al-Layl)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
By the night when it envelopeth, 1 by the day when it appears radiant, 2 Consider the creation of the male and the female! 3 surely your strivings are divergent. 4 Thus, as for him who gives [to others] and is conscious of God, 5 And affirms goodness, 6 We shall facilitate for him the Way to Bliss. 7 As for him who was a miser and behaved with aversion (to Allah), 8 And gives the lie to Al-Husna (see Verse No: 6 footnote); 9 We will make smooth for him the path for evil; 10 Nor will his wealth profit him when he falls headlong (into the Pit). 11 Surely it is for Us to show the Right Way, 12 And indeed the Hereafter and this world both belong to Us. 13 I have now warned you of the Blazing Fire, 14 in which no one will suffer forever except the wicked ones 15 even he who cried lies, and turned away; 16 But the God-fearing shall be kept away from it, 17 even he who gives his wealth. to purify himself 18 And no one has done a favour to him, for which he should be compensated. 19 except the pleasure of their Lord, the Most High 20 He surely will be pleased (when he will enter Paradise). 21
