Surah The Chargers [Al-Adiyat] in English

Surah The Chargers [Al-Adiyat] Ayah 11 Location Maccah Number 100

وَٱلْعَٰدِيَٰتِ ضَبْحًۭا ﴿١﴾

By the snorting chargers,

فَٱلْمُورِيَٰتِ قَدْحًۭا ﴿٢﴾

by the strikers of sparks [with their hoofs],

فَٱلْمُغِيرَٰتِ صُبْحًۭا ﴿٣﴾

by the raiders at dawn,

فَأَثَرْنَ بِهِۦ نَقْعًۭا ﴿٤﴾

raising therein a trail of dust,

فَوَسَطْنَ بِهِۦ جَمْعًا ﴿٥﴾

and cleaving therein a host!

إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ لِرَبِّهِۦ لَكَنُودٌۭ ﴿٦﴾

Indeed man is ungrateful to his Lord,

وَإِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ ذَٰلِكَ لَشَهِيدٌۭ ﴿٧﴾

and indeed he is [himself] witness to that!

وَإِنَّهُۥ لِحُبِّ ٱلْخَيْرِ لَشَدِيدٌ ﴿٨﴾

And indeed he is an avid lover of wealth.

۞ أَفَلَا يَعْلَمُ إِذَا بُعْثِرَ مَا فِى ٱلْقُبُورِ ﴿٩﴾

Does he not know, when what is [buried] in the graves is turned over,

وَحُصِّلَ مَا فِى ٱلصُّدُورِ ﴿١٠﴾

and what is [concealed] in the breasts is divulged,

إِنَّ رَبَّهُم بِهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ لَّخَبِيرٌۢ ﴿١١﴾

on that day their Lord will be well informed about them [and their deeds]?
