Pickthall, Surah 89: The Dawn (Al-Fajr)

Surahs

[1] By the Dawn

[2] And ten nights,

[3] And the Even and the Odd,

[4] And the night when it departeth,

[5] There surely is an oath for thinking man.

[6] Dost thou not consider how thy Lord dealt with (the tribe of) A'ad,

[7] With many-columned Iram,

[8] The like of which was not created in the lands;

[9] And with (the tribe of) Thamud, who clove the rocks in the valley;

[10] And with Pharaoh, firm of might,

[11] Who (all) were rebellious (to Allah) in these lands,

[12] And multiplied iniquity therein?

[13] Therefore thy Lord poured on them the disaster of His punishment.

[14] Lo! thy Lord is ever watchful.

[15] As for man, whenever his Lord trieth him by honouring him, and is gracious unto him, he saith: My Lord honoureth me.

[16] But whenever He trieth him by straitening his means of life, he saith: My Lord despiseth me.

[17] Nay, but ye (for your part) honour not the orphan

[18] And urge not on the feeding of the poor.

[19] And ye devour heritages with devouring greed.

[20] And love wealth with abounding love.

[21] Nay, but when the earth is ground to atoms, grinding, grinding,

[22] And thy Lord shall come with angels, rank on rank,

[23] And hell is brought near that day; on that day man will remember, but how will the remembrance (then avail him)?

[24] He will say: Ah, would that I had sent before me (some provision) for my life!

[25] None punisheth as He will punish on that day!

[26] None bindeth as He then will bind.

[27] But ah! thou soul at peace!

[28] Return unto thy Lord, content in His good pleasure!

[29] Enter thou among My bondmen!

[30] Enter thou My Garden!
