By the night as it covers.
وَالَّيلِ إِذا يَغشىٰ
wallaili izaa yaghshaa
And Him who created the male and the female.
وَما خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالأُنثىٰ
wa maa khalaqaz zakara wal unthaa
As for him who gives to charity and maintains righteousness.
فَأَمّا مَن أَعطىٰ وَاتَّقىٰ
fa ammaa man a’taa wattaqaa
We will direct him towards happiness.
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِليُسرىٰ
fasanu yassiruhoo lilyusraa
But he who is stingy, though he is rich.
وَأَمّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاستَغنىٰ
wa ammaa man bakhila wastaghnaa
We will direct him towards misery.
فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلعُسرىٰ
fasanu yassiruhoo lil’usraa
