بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

  1. Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,

    أَلَمْ نَشْرَحْ لَكَ صَدْرَكَ

  2. And eased thee of the burden

    وَوَضَعْنَا عَنكَ وِزْرَكَ

  3. Which weighed down thy back;

    ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنقَضَ ظَهْرَكَ

  4. And exalted thy fame?

    وَرَفَعْنَا لَكَ ذِكْرَكَ

  5. But lo! with hardship goeth ease,

    فَإِنَّ مَعَ ٱلْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا

  6. Lo! with hardship goeth ease;

    إِنَّ مَعَ ٱلْعُسْرِ يُسْرًۭا

  7. So when thou art relieved, still toil

    فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ فَٱنصَبْ

  8. And strive to please thy Lord.

    وَإِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَٱرْغَب
