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

Surahs

[1] By the dawn,

[2] by the Ten (secret) Nights,

[3] by the odd and even (8th and 9th Dhil-hajj)

[4] and by the night when it moves on towards daybreak (reward and retribution in the next life is an absolute reality).

[5] Is this not a sufficient oath for intelligent people?

[6] (Muhammad), consider how your Lord dealt with the tribe of Ad,

[7] the people of the huge columned city of Eram

[8] whose like has never been created in any other land.

[9] (Also consider how He dealt with) the Thamud, who carved their houses out of the rocks in the valley.

[10] (Also consider the people of) the Pharaoh who victimized people by placing them on the stake,

[11] led rebellious lives,

[12] and spread much corruption in the land.

[13] Thus, your Lord afflicted them with torment;

[14] your Lord keeps an eye on (all evil-doing people).

[15] As for the human being, when his Lord tests him, honors him, and grants him bounty, he says, "God has honored me".

[16] However, when his Lord tests him by a measured amount of sustenance, he says, "God has disgraced me".

[17] (Since wealth does not necessarily guarantee everlasting happiness) then why do you not show kindness to the orphans,

[18] or urge one another to feed the destitute?

[19] Why do you take away the inheritance of others indiscriminately

[20] and why do you have an excessive love of riches?

[21] When the earth is crushed into small pieces

[22] and (when you find yourself) in the presence of your Lord and the rows and rows of angels, your greed for riches will certainly be of no avail to you.

[23] On that day, hell will be brought closer and the human being will come to his senses, but this will be of no avail to him.

[24] He will say, "Would that I had done some good deeds for this life".

[25] On that day the punishment of God and His detention will be unparalleled.

[26] And His bonds will be such as none other can bind.

[27] Serene soul,

[28] return to your Lord well pleased with him and He will be pleased with you.

[29] Enter among My servants

[30] into My Paradise.
