Al-Balad


لَآ أُقۡسِمُ بِهَٰذَا ٱلۡبَلَدِ

I do call to witness this City;-


وَأَنتَ حِلُّۢ بِهَٰذَا ٱلۡبَلَدِ

And thou art a freeman of this City;-


وَوَالِدٖ وَمَا وَلَدَ

And (the mystic ties of) parent and child;-


لَقَدۡ خَلَقۡنَا ٱلۡإِنسَٰنَ فِي كَبَدٍ

Verily We have created man into toil and struggle.


أَيَحۡسَبُ أَن لَّن يَقۡدِرَ عَلَيۡهِ أَحَدٞ

Thinketh he, that none hath power over him?


يَقُولُ أَهۡلَكۡتُ مَالٗا لُّبَدًا

He may say (boastfully); Wealth have I squandered in abundance!


أَيَحۡسَبُ أَن لَّمۡ يَرَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌ

Thinketh he that none beholdeth him?


أَلَمۡ نَجۡعَل لَّهُۥ عَيۡنَيۡنِ

Have We not made for him a pair of eyes?-


وَلِسَانٗا وَشَفَتَيۡنِ

And a tongue, and a pair of lips?-


وَهَدَيۡنَٰهُ ٱلنَّجۡدَيۡنِ

And shown him the two highways?
