100. Al-'Adiyat

By the racers, panting,1

By the snorting, panting horses

Oh, the panting galloping horses of the raiders

And the producers of sparks [when] striking1

striking sparks of fire with their hooves

Sparks of fire striking (with their gallops)

And the chargers at dawn,1

as they gallop to make raids at dawn

Charging, ambushing at dawn

Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust,

and raising clouds of dust

Therewith raising clouds of dust

Arriving thereby in the center1 collectively,

forcing their way into the midst of the enemy

Storming into any community

Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful.

surely, man is ungrateful to his Lord

Behold, man is so ungrateful to his Lord! (Robbing the fruit of others' labor)

And indeed, he is to that a witness.1

He himself bears witness to that

And behold, he is a witness unto that

And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense.

Surely, he is ardent in his love of wealth

And behold, in the love of wealth he is ardent

But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered

Is he not aware of the time when the contents of the graves will be brought out

Knows he not that all hidden things will be dug out? (Intentions, actions and material things that were robbed, and the disintegrated forms resurrected)

And that within the breasts is obtained,1

And the hearts' contents shall be brought into the open

And the secrets of the hearts will be laid bare

Indeed, their Lord with them, that Day, is [fully] Aware.1

Surely, on that Day, they will know that their Lord had full knowledge of them all

(They will find out) on that Day - their Lord is fully Aware of them
