78. Aqimi aLssalata lidulooki aLshshamsi ila ghasaqi allayli waqur-ana alfajri inna qur-ana alfajri kana mashhoodaN
78. Establish regular prayers--
At the sun's decline
Till the darkness of the night,
And the morning prayer
And reading: for the prayer
And reading in the morning
Carry their testimony.
79. Wamina allayli fatahajjad bihi nafilatan laka AAasa an yabAAathaka rabbuka maqaman mahmoodaN
79. And pray in the small watches
Of the morning: (it would be)
An additional prayer
(Or spiritual profit)
For thee: soon will thy Lord
Raise thee to a Station
Of Praise and Glory!
80. Waqul rabbi adkhilnee mudkhala sidqin waakhrijnee mukhraja sidqin waIjAAal lee min ladunka sultanan naseeraN
80. Say: "O my Lord!
Let my entry be
By the Gate of Truth
And Honour, and likewise
My exit by the Gate
Of Truth and Honour;
And grant me
From Thy Presence
An authority to aid (me).
81. Waqul jaa alhaqqu wazahaqa albatilu inna albatila kana zahooqaN
81. And say: "Truth has (now)
Arrived, and Falsehood perished:
For Falsehood is (by its nature)
Bound to perish."
82. Wanunazzilu mina alqur-ani ma huwa shifaon warahmatun lilmu/mineena wala yazeedu aL"thth"alimeena illa khasaraN
82. We send down (stage by stage)
In the Qur-n that which
Is a healing and a mercy
To those who believe:
To the unjust it causes
Nothing but loss after loss.
83. Wa-itha anAAamna AAala al-insani aAArada wanaa bijanibihi wa-itha massahu aLshsharru kana yaoosaN
83. Yet when We bestow
Our favours on man,
He turns away and becomes
Remote on his side (instead
Of coming to Us), and when
Evil seizes him he
Gives himself up to despair!
84. Qul kullun yaAAmalu AAala shakilatihi farabbukum aAAlamu biman huwa ahda sabeelaN
84. Say: "Everyone acts
According to his own disposition:
But your Lord knows best
Who it is that is
Best guided on the Way."
