Surah “The Dawn, Daybreak”

as rendered by The Study Quran — 30 verses

89:1
By the dawn
89:2
by the ten nights
89:3
by the even and the odd
89:4
and by the night as it recedes
89:5
is there an oath therein for one who is mindful
89:6
Hast thou not seen how thy Lord dealt with Ad
89:7
Iram the pillared
89:8
the like of which was never created in all the land
89:9
Thamud who hollowed the rocks in the valley
89:10
and Pharaoh of the tent poles
89:11
who tyrannized the lan
89:12
and increased corruption therein
89:13
So thy Lord poured upon them the scourge of punishment
89:14
Truly thy Lord lies in ambush
89:15
As for man, whenever his Lord tests him, then honors him and blesses him, he says, “My Lord has honored me.
89:16
And as for whenever He tries him and straitens his provision, he says, “My Lord has abased me.
89:17
Nay, but you honor not the orphan
89:18
nor urge you the feeding of the indigent
89:19
You devour inheritance with rapacious devouring
89:20
and love wealth with abounding love
89:21
Nay, but when the earth is ground up, grinding upon grinding
89:22
and your Lord comes with the angels, row upon row
89:23
and Hell is brought forth that Day; that Day man will remember; yet whence will that remembrance avail him
89:24
He will say, “Would that I had sent forth for my life!
89:25
That Day none punishes as He punishes
89:26
and none binds as He binds
89:27
O thou soul at peace
89:28
Return unto thy Lord, content, contenting
89:29
Enter among My servants
89:30
Enter My Garden
