1. I swear by the daybreak,
2. And the ten nights,

4. And the night when it departs.
S. Truly in that there is an oath for those who possess understanding.
6. Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with Ad,
7. (The people of) Aram, possessors of lofty buildings,
8. The like of which were not created in the (other) cities;
9. And (with) Samood, who hewed out the rocks in the valley,
10. And (with) Firon, the lord of hosts,
11. Who committed inordinacy in the cities,
12. So they made great mischief therein?
13. Therefore your Lord let down upon them a portion of the chastisement.
14. Most sure!y your Lord is watching.
15. And as for man, when his Lord tries him, then treats him with honor and makes him lead an easy life, he says: My Lord honors me.
16. But when He tries him (differently), then straitens to him his means of subsistence, he says: My Lord has disgraced me.
17. Nay! but you do not honor the orphan,
18. Nor do you urge one another to feed the poor,
19. And you eat away the heritage, devouring (everything) indiscriminately,
20. And you love wealth with exceeding love.
21. Nay! when the earth is made to crumble to pieces,
22. And your Lord comes and (also) the angels in ranks,
23. And hell is made to appear on that day. On that day shall man be mindful, and what shall being mindful (then) avail him?

8. Have We not given him two eyes,
9. And a tongue and two lips,
10. And pointed out to him the two conspicuous ways?
11. But he would not attempt the uphill road,
12. And what will make you comprehend what the uphill road is?
13. (It is) the setting free of a slave,
14. Or the giving of food in a day of hunger
15. To an orphan, having relationship,
16. Or to the poor man lying in the dust.
17. Then he is of those who believe and charge one another to show patience, and charge one another to show compassion.
18. These are the people of the right hand.
19. And (as for) those who disbelieve in our communications, they are the people of the left hand.
20. On them is fire closed over.

10. And he will indeed fail who corrupts it.
11. Samood gave the lie (to the truth) in their inordinacy,
12. When the most unfortunate of them broke forth with
13 So Allah's apostle said to them (Leave alone) Allah's she-camel, and (give) her (to) drink.
