    لَآ أُقْسِمُ بِهَـٰذَا ٱلْبَلَدِ ۝١

    90:1 Nay, I swear by this city -

  2. وَأَنتَ حِلٌّۢ بِهَـٰذَا ٱلْبَلَدِ ۝٢

    90:2 And thou art an indweller of this city -

  3. وَوَالِدٍ وَمَا وَلَدَ ۝٣

    90:3 And the begetter and that which he begat,

  4. لَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْإِنسَـٰنَ فِى كَبَدٍ ۝٤

    90:4 We verily have created man in an atmosphere:

  5. أَيَحْسَبُ أَن لَّن يَقْدِرَ عَلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ ۝٥

    90:5 Thinketh he that none hath power over him?

  6. يَقُولُ أَهْلَكْتُ مَالًا لُّبَدًا ۝٦

  7. أَيَحْسَبُ أَن لَّمْ يَرَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌ ۝٧

    90:7 Thinketh he that none beholdeth him?

  8. أَلَمْ نَجْعَل لَّهُۥ عَيْنَيْنِ ۝٨

    90:8 Did We not assign unto him two eyes

  9. وَلِسَانًا وَشَفَتَيْنِ ۝٩

    90:9 And a tongue and two lips,

  10. وَهَدَيْنَـٰهُ ٱلنَّجْدَيْنِ ۝١٠

    90:10 And guide him to the parting of the mountain ways?

  11. فَلَا ٱقْتَحَمَ ٱلْعَقَبَةَ ۝١١

    90:11 But he hath not attempted the Ascent -

  12. وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْعَقَبَةُ ۝١٢

    90:12 Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Ascent is! -

  13. فَكُّ رَقَبَةٍ ۝١٣

    90:13 (It is) to free a slave,

  14. أَوْ إِطْعَـٰمٌ فِى يَوْمٍ ذِى مَسْغَبَةٍ ۝١٤

    90:14 And to feed in the day of hunger.

  15. يَتِيمًا ذَا مَقْرَبَةٍ ۝١٥

    90:15 An orphan near of kin,

  16. أَوْ مِسْكِينًا ذَا مَتْرَبَةٍ ۝١٦

    90:16 Or some poor wretch in misery,

  17. ثُمَّ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِٱلصَّبْرِ وَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِٱلْمَرْحَمَةِ ۝١٧

    90:17 And to be of those who believe and exhort one another to perseverance and exhort one another to pity.

  18. أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْمَيْمَنَةِ ۝١٨

    90:18 Their place will be on the right hand.

  19. وَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا هُمْ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْمَشْـَٔمَةِ ۝١٩

    90:19 But those who disbelieve Our revelations, their place will be on the left hand.

  20. عَلَيْهِمْ نَارٌ مُّؤْصَدَةٌۢ ۝٢٠

    90:20 Fire will be an awning over them.
