Surah Ash-Sharh

The Consolation

94 / 1148 ayahsMakki

Translation by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

أَلَمۡ نَشۡرَحۡ لَكَ صَدۡرَكَ (1)

Have We not expanded thee thy breast

وَوَضَعۡنَا عَنكَ وِزۡرَكَ (2)

And removed from thee thy burden

ٱلَّذِيٓ أَنقَضَ ظَهۡرَكَ (3)

The which did gall thy back

وَرَفَعۡنَا لَكَ ذِكۡرَكَ (4)

And raised high the esteem (in which) thou (art held)

فَإِنَّ مَعَ ٱلۡعُسۡرِ يُسۡرًا (5)

So, verily, with every difficulty, there is relief

إِنَّ مَعَ ٱلۡعُسۡرِ يُسۡرࣰ ا (6)

Verily, with every difficulty there is relief

فَإِذَا فَرَغۡتَ فَٱنصَبۡ (7)

Therefore, when thou art free (from thine immediate task), still labour hard

وَإِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَٱرۡغَب (8)

And to thy Lord turn (all) thy attention
