Surah Al-Layl ( The Night ) - Aya count 21

وَٱلَّيۡلِ إِذَا يَغۡشَىٰ ﰀ ﴿١﴾

By the night when it covers

وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ ﰁ ﴿٢﴾

And [by] the day when it appears

وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلۡأُنثَىٰٓ ﰂ ﴿٣﴾

And [by] He who created the male and female,

إِنَّ سَعۡيَكُمۡ لَشَتَّىٰ ﰃ ﴿٤﴾

Indeed, your efforts are diverse.

فَأَمَّا مَنۡ أَعۡطَىٰ وَٱتَّقَىٰ ﰄ ﴿٥﴾

As for he who gives and fears Allah

وَصَدَّقَ بِٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰ ﰅ ﴿٦﴾

And believes in the best [reward],

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلۡيُسۡرَىٰ ﰆ ﴿٧﴾

We will ease him toward ease.

وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسۡتَغۡنَىٰ ﰇ ﴿٨﴾

But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need

وَكَذَّبَ بِٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰ ﰈ ﴿٩﴾

And denies the best [reward],

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُۥ لِلۡعُسۡرَىٰ ﰉ ﴿١٠﴾

We will ease him toward difficulty.

وَمَا يُغۡنِي عَنۡهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ ﰊ ﴿١١﴾

And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?

إِنَّ عَلَيۡنَا لَلۡهُدَىٰ ﰋ ﴿١٢﴾

Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance.

وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلۡأٓخِرَةَ وَٱلۡأُولَىٰ ﰌ ﴿١٣﴾

And indeed, to Us belongs the Hereafter and the first [life].

فَأَنذَرۡتُكُمۡ نَارٗا تَلَظَّىٰ ﰍ ﴿١٤﴾

So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing.

لَا يَصۡلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلۡأَشۡقَى ﰎ ﴿١٥﴾

None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one.

ٱلَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ﰏ ﴿١٦﴾

Who had denied and turned away.

وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلۡأَتۡقَى ﰐ ﴿١٧﴾

But the righteous one will avoid it -

ٱلَّذِي يُؤۡتِي مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ ﰑ ﴿١٨﴾

[He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself

وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعۡمَةٖ تُجۡزَىٰٓ ﰒ ﴿١٩﴾

And not [giving] for anyone who has [done him] a favor to be rewarded

إِلَّا ٱبۡتِغَآءَ وَجۡهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلۡأَعۡلَىٰ ﰓ ﴿٢٠﴾

But only seeking the countenance of his Lord, Most High.

وَلَسَوۡفَ يَرۡضَىٰ ﰔ ﴿٢١﴾

And he is going to be satisfied.
