1. With the name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful I begin.
2. By the Dawn
3. By the ten nights
4. By the Even and the Odd *
5. And the night when it eases out
6. Is there evidence in all this for one with wisdom?
7. Did you not hear of what your God did with the nation of Aad?
8. Erum, the owners of lofty pillars*
9. The likes of which was not built in the regions
10. And Thamood who hewed out homes in the hills of the valley
11. And Pharaoh with a huge army
12. Who ravished the regions
13. So spread therein the corruptions
14. Thus your God poured over them the disaster of punishment
15. Most certainly your God is on a constant watch.
16. So as regards the man — when his God has tried him and honored him and blessed him — then he would say, “My God has honored me.”
17. And as regards when He has tried him and reduced his subsistence, then he would lament, “My God has dishonored me.”
18. The fact, however, is that you do not honor the orphan
19. And you do not exhort each other on feeding the needy
20. And orphans’ inheritance you devour greedily
21. And you love the wealth with lusty loving                                                                  22. The fact is that when the earth would be crushed to powder with a pounding
23. And your God would come with the judgment and the angels in row after row to execute it
24. And that day the Hell would be brought near. That day man will remember but for him the remembrance would be of what use is?
25. He would say, “O! I wish I had forwarded something for my life”
26. So that day no one will punish like His punishment
27. And no one will bind like His binding
28. Listen! You the contended soul
29. Return to your God, very pleasingly and well-pleased
30. So enter in the fold of My devotees
31. And enter My Paradise
