Fecr Suresi

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ وَٱلْفَجْرِ

velfecr.

By the dawn

وَلَيَالٍ عَشْرٍۢ

veleyâlin `aşr.

And [by] ten nights

وَٱلشَّفْعِ وَٱلْوَتْرِ

veşşef`i velvetr.

And [by] the even [number] and the odd

وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَسْرِ

velleyli iẕâ yesr.

And [by] the night when it passes,

هَلْ فِى ذَٰلِكَ قَسَمٌۭ لِّذِى حِجْرٍ

hel fî ẕâlike ḳasemül liẕî ḥicr.

Is there [not] in [all] that an oath [sufficient] for one of perception?

أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِعَادٍ

elem tera keyfe fe`ale rabbüke bi`âd.

Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with 'Aad -

إِرَمَ ذَاتِ ٱلْعِمَادِ

irame ẕâti-l`imâd.

[With] Iram - who had lofty pillars,

ٱلَّتِى لَمْ يُخْلَقْ مِثْلُهَا فِى ٱلْبِلَٰدِ

elletî lem yuḫlaḳ miŝlühâ fi-lbilâd.

The likes of whom had never been created in the land?

وَثَمُودَ ٱلَّذِينَ جَابُوا۟ ٱلصَّخْرَ بِٱلْوَادِ

veŝemûde-lleẕîne câbu-ṣṣaḫra bilvâd.

And [with] Thamud, who carved out the rocks in the valley?

وَفِرْعَوْنَ ذِى ٱلْأَوْتَادِ

vefir`avne ẕi-l'evtâd.

And [with] Pharaoh, owner of the stakes? -

ٱلَّذِينَ طَغَوْا۟ فِى ٱلْبِلَٰدِ

elleẕîne ṭagav fi-lbilâd.

[All of] whom oppressed within the lands

فَأَكْثَرُوا۟ فِيهَا ٱلْفَسَادَ

feekŝerû fîhe-lfesâd.

And increased therein the corruption.

فَصَبَّ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّكَ سَوْطَ عَذَابٍ

feṣabbe `aleyhim rabbüke sevṭa `aẕâb.

So your Lord poured upon them a scourge of punishment.

إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَبِٱلْمِرْصَادِ

inne rabbeke lebilmirṣâd.

Indeed, your Lord is in observation.

فَأَمَّا ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ إِذَا مَا ٱبْتَلَىٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ فَأَكْرَمَهُۥ وَنَعَّمَهُۥ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّىٓ أَكْرَمَنِ

feemme-l'insânü iẕâ me-btelâhü rabbühû feekramehû vene``amehû feyeḳûlü rabbî ekramen.

And as for man, when his Lord tries him and [thus] is generous to him and favors him, he says, "My Lord has honored me."

وَأَمَّآ إِذَا مَا ٱبْتَلَىٰهُ فَقَدَرَ عَلَيْهِ رِزْقَهُۥ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّىٓ أَهَٰنَنِ

veemmâ iẕâ me-btelâhü feḳadera `aleyhi rizḳahû feyeḳûlü rabbî ehânen.

But when He tries him and restricts his provision, he says, "My Lord has humiliated me."

كَلَّا ۖ بَل لَّا تُكْرِمُونَ ٱلْيَتِيمَ

kellâ bel lâ tükrimûne-lyetîm.

No! But you do not honor the orphan

وَلَا تَحَٰٓضُّونَ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلْمِسْكِينِ

velâ teḥâḍḍûne `alâ ṭa`âmi-lmiskîn.

And you do not encourage one another to feed the poor.

وَتَأْكُلُونَ ٱلتُّرَاثَ أَكْلًۭا لَّمًّۭا

vete'külûne-ttürâŝe eklel lemmâ.

And you consume inheritance, devouring [it] altogether,

وَتُحِبُّونَ ٱلْمَالَ حُبًّۭا جَمًّۭا

vetüḥibbûne-lmâle ḥubben cemmâ.

And you love wealth with immense love.

كَلَّآ إِذَا دُكَّتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ دَكًّۭا دَكًّۭا

kellâ iẕâ dükketi-l'arḍu dekken dekkâ.

No! When the earth has been leveled - pounded and crushed -

وَجَآءَ رَبُّكَ وَٱلْمَلَكُ صَفًّۭا صَفًّۭا

vecâe rabbüke velmelekü ṣaffen ṣaffâ.

And your Lord has come and the angels, rank upon rank,

وَجِا۟ىٓءَ يَوْمَئِذٍۭ بِجَهَنَّمَ ۚ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ يَتَذَكَّرُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ وَأَنَّىٰ لَهُ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ

vecîe yevmeiẕim bicehenneme yevmeiẕiy yeteẕekkeru-l'insânü veennâ lehü-ẕẕikrâ.

And brought [within view], that Day, is Hell - that Day, man will remember, but what good to him will be the remembrance?

يَقُولُ يَٰلَيْتَنِى قَدَّمْتُ لِحَيَاتِى

yeḳûlü yâ leytenî ḳaddemtü liḥayâtî.

He will say, "Oh, I wish I had sent ahead [some good] for my life."

فَيَوْمَئِذٍۢ لَّا يُعَذِّبُ عَذَابَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌۭ

feyevmeiẕil lâ yü`aẕẕibü `aẕâbehû eḥad.

So on that Day, none will punish [as severely] as His punishment,

وَلَا يُوثِقُ وَثَاقَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌۭ

velâ yûŝiḳu veŝâḳahû eḥad.

And none will bind [as severely] as His binding [of the evildoers].

يَٰٓأَيَّتُهَا ٱلنَّفْسُ ٱلْمُطْمَئِنَّةُ

yâ eyyetühe-nnefsü-lmuṭmeinneh.

[To the righteous it will be said], "O reassured soul,

ٱرْجِعِىٓ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكِ رَاضِيَةًۭ مَّرْضِيَّةًۭ

irci`î ilâ rabbiki râḍiyetem merḍiyyeh.

Return to your Lord, well-pleased and pleasing [to Him],

فَٱدْخُلِى فِى عِبَٰدِى

fedḫulî fî `ibâdî.

And enter among My [righteous] servants

وَٱدْخُلِى جَنَّتِى

vedḫulî cennetî.

And enter My Paradise."
