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

وَٱلۡعَـٰدِیَـٰتِ ضَبۡحࣰا ﴿1﴾

By the snorting chargers,

فَٱلۡمُورِیَـٰتِ قَدۡحࣰا ﴿2﴾

by the strikers of sparks [with their hoofs],

فَٱلۡمُغِیرَ ٰ⁠تِ صُبۡحࣰا ﴿3﴾

by the raiders at dawn,

فَأَثَرۡنَ بِهِۦ نَقۡعࣰا ﴿4﴾

raising therein a trail of dust,

فَوَسَطۡنَ بِهِۦ جَمۡعًا ﴿5﴾

and cleaving therein a host!

إِنَّ ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنَ لِرَبِّهِۦ لَكَنُودࣱ ﴿6﴾

Indeed man is ungrateful to his Lord,

وَإِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ ذَ ٰ⁠لِكَ لَشَهِیدࣱ ﴿7﴾

and indeed he is [himself] witness to that!

وَإِنَّهُۥ لِحُبِّ ٱلۡخَیۡرِ لَشَدِیدٌ ﴿8﴾

And indeed he is an avid lover of wealth.

۞ أَفَلَا یَعۡلَمُ إِذَا بُعۡثِرَ مَا فِی ٱلۡقُبُورِ ﴿9﴾

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

وَحُصِّلَ مَا فِی ٱلصُّدُورِ ﴿10﴾

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

إِنَّ رَبَّهُم بِهِمۡ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ لَّخَبِیرُۢ ﴿11﴾

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