Number of Ayah 20
Place Mecca
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
1. O you who have wrapped up in your garments!
2. Rise to pray in the night except a little,
3. Half of it, or lessen it a little,
4. Or add to it, and recite the Quran as it ought to be recited.
S. Surely We will make to light upon you a weighty Word.
6. Surely the rising by night is the firmest way to tread and the best corrective of speech.
7. Surely you have in the day time a long occupation.
8. And remember the name of your Lord and devote yourself to Him with (exclusive) devotion.
9. The Lord of the East and the West-- there is no god but He-- therefore take Him for a protector.
10. And bear patiently what they say and avoid them with a becoming avoidance.
11. And leave Me and the rejecters, the possessors of ease and plenty, and respite them a little.
12. Surely with Us are heavy fetters and a flaming fire,
13. And food that chokes and a painful punishment,
14. On the day when the earth and the mountains shall quake and the mountains shall become (as) heaps of sand let loose.
15. Surely We have sent to you an Apostle, a witness against you, as We sent an apostle to Firon.
16. But Firon disobeyed the apostle, so We laid on him a violent hold.
17. How, then, will you guard yourselves, if you disbelieve, on the day which shall make children grey-headed?
18. The heaven shall rend asunder thereby; His promise is ever brought to fulfillment.
19. Surely this is a reminder, then let him, who will take the way to his Lord.

20. Surely your Lord knows that you pass in prayer nearly two-thirds of the night, and (sometimes) half of it, and (sometimes) a third of it, and (also) a party of those with you; and Allah measures the night and the day. He knows that you are not able to do it, so He has turned to you (mercifully), therefore read what is easy of the Quran. He knows that there must be among you sick, and others who travel in the land seeking of the bounty of Allah, and others who fight in Allah's way, therefore read as much of it as is easy (to you), and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate and offer to Allah a goodly gift, and whatever of good you send on beforehand for yourselves, you will find it with Allah; that is best and greatest in reward; and ask forgiveness of Allah; surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

5. And uncleanness do shun,
6. And bestow not favors that you may receive again with increase,
7. And for the sake of your Lord, be patient.
8. For when the trumpet is sounded,
9. That, at that time, shall be a difficult day,
10. For the unbelievers, anything but easy.
11. Leave Me and him whom I created alone,
12. And give him vast riches,
13. And sons dwelling in his presence,
14. And I adjusted affairs for him adjustably;
15. And yet he desires that I should add more!
16. By no means! surely he offers opposition to Our communications.
17. I will make a distressing punishment overtake him.

18. Surely he reflected and guessed,
19. But may he be cursed how he plotted;
20. Again, may he be cursed how he plotted;
21. Then he looked,
22. Then he frowned and scowled,
23. Then he turned back and was big with pride,
24. ~Then he said: This is naught but enchantment, narrated (from others);
25. This is naught but the word of a mortal.
26. 1 will cast him into hell.
27. And what will make you realize what hell is?
28. It leaves naught nor does it spare aught.
29. It scorches the mortal.
30. Over it are nineteen.
31 . And We have not made the wardens of the fire others than angels, and We have not made their number but as a trial for those who disbelieve, that those who have been given the book may be certain and those who believe may increase in faith, and those who have been given the book and the believers may not doubt, and that those in whose hearts is a disease and the unbelievers may say: What does Allah mean by this parable? Thus does Allah make err whom He pleases, and He guides whom He pleases, and none knows the hosts of your Lord but He Himself; and this is naught but a reminder to the mortals.
32. Nay; I swear by the moon,
33. And the night when it departs,
34. And the daybreak when it shines;
35. Surely it (hell) is one of the gravest (misfortunes),
36. A warning to mortals,
37. To him among you who wishes to go forward or remain behind.
38. Every soul is held in pledge for what it earns,
39. Except the people of the right hand,
40. In gardens, they shall ask each other
41. About the guilty:
42. What has brought you into hell?
43. They shall say: We were not of those who prayed;
44. And we used not to feed the poor;
45. And we used to enter into vain discourse with those who entered into vain discourses.
46. And we used to call the day of judgment a lie;
47. Till death overtook us.

48. So the intercession of intercessors shall not avail them.
49. What is then the matter with them, that they turn away from the admonition
50. As if they were asses taking fright
51. That had fled from a lion?
52. Nay; every one of them desires that he may be given pages spread out;
53. Nay! but they do not fear the hereafter.
54. Nay! it is surely an admonition.
SS. So whoever pleases may mind it.
56. And they will not mind unless Allah please. He is worthy to be feared and worthy to forgive.

13. Man shall on that day be informed of what he sent before and (what he) put off.
14. Nay! man is evidence against himself,
15. Though he puts forth his excuses.
16. Do not move your tongue with it to make haste with it,
17: Surely on Us (devolves) the collecting of it and the reciting of it.
18. Therefore when We have recited it, follow its recitation.
19. Again on Us (devolves) the explaining of it.

26. Nay! When it comes up to the throat,
27. And it is said: Who will be a magician?
28. And he is sure that it is the (hour of) parting
29. And affliction is combined with affliction;
30. To your Lord on that day shall be the driving.
31. So he did not accept the truth, nor did he pray,
32. But called the truth a lie and turned back,
33. Then he went to his followers, walking away in haughtiness.
34. Nearer to you (is destruction) and nearer,
35. Again (consider how) nearer to you and nearer.
36. Does man think that he is to be left to wander without an aim?
37. Was he not a small seed in the seminal elements,
38. Then he was a clot of blood, so He created (him) then made (him) perfect.
39. Then He made of him two kinds, the male and the female.
40. Is not He able to give life to the dead?
