Holy Quran Verses from Pickthall's Translation

Surah Layl: The Night

In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

092.001	By the night enshrouding
092.002	And the day resplendent
092.003	And Him Who hath created male and female,
092.004	Lo! your effort is dispersed (toward divers ends).
092.005	As for him who giveth and is dutiful (toward Allah)
092.006	And believeth in goodness;
092.007	Surely We will ease his way unto the state of ease.
092.008	But as for him who hoardeth and deemeth himself independent,
092.009	And disbelieveth in goodness;
092.010	Surely We will ease his way unto adversity.
092.011	His riches will not save him when he perisheth.
092.012	Lo! Ours it is (to give) the guidance
092.013	And lo! unto Us belong the latter portion and the former.
092.014	Therefor have I warned you of the flaming Fire
092.015	Which only the most wretched must endure,
092.016	He who denieth and turneth away.
092.017	Far removed from it will be the righteous
092.018	Who giveth his wealth that he may grow (in goodness).
092.019	And none hath with him any favour for reward,
092.020	Except as seeking (to fulfil) the purpose of his Lord Most High.
092.021	He verily will be content.

Let us pray (Sura 20, Ayat 114) 'Ya Rabbi Zidni Ilma!' ('O Lord! Increase me in knowledge.') and seek spiritual help (ta'yid) to understand our great faith.
