By the night when it covers ˹in darkness˺
and ˹by˺ the day when it appears ˹in brightness˺
and He ˹Allah˺ Who created the male and the female
Indeed, your efforts (i.e., striving) are surely diverse (i.e., different)
So as for he who gives and fears ˹Allah˺
and believes in the best (i.e., finest reward)
then We will ease him (i.e., for such a one) towards ease
But as for he who withholds (i.e., stingy) and considers himself self-sufficient
and denies the best (i.e., finest reward)
Then We will ease him towards difficulty
And his wealth will be of no benefit to him when he falls
Indeed, The Guidance ˹to guide˺ is upon Us
and indeed, to Us belongs the last (i.e., hereafter) and the first (i.e., worldly life)
So, I ˹Allah˺ warn you of a blazing (i.e., raging) Fire
none will burn therein except the most wicked (i.e., unfortunate one)
the one who denied ˹the truth˺ and turned away ˹from the truth˺
but the most righteous (i.e., the fortunate one) will be kept far away from it (i.e., spared from the blazing Fire)
the one who gives from his own wealth to purify himself
and ˹the giver˺ does not ˹give˺ to anyone ˹expecting˺ any favor in return with him (i.e., from the receiver)
but ˹gives only for˺ seeking the Countenance (i.e., Pleasure) of his Lord ˹Allah˺, The Most High
And soon, surely he ˹the giver˺ will be well-pleased
