The Consolation · 8 verses · Meccan
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
1
بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِیمِ أَلَمۡ نَشۡرَحۡ لَكَ صَدۡرَكَ
HAVE WE NOT opened up thy heart,
2
وَوَضَعۡنَا عَنكَ وِزۡرَكَ
and lifted from thee the burden
3
ٱلَّذِیۤ أَنقَضَ ظَهۡرَكَ
that had weighed so heavily on thy back?
4
وَرَفَعۡنَا لَكَ ذِكۡرَكَ
And [have We not] raised thee high in dignity?
5
فَإِنَّ مَعَ ٱلۡعُسۡرِ یُسۡرًا
And, behold, with every hardship comes ease:
6
إِنَّ مَعَ ٱلۡعُسۡرِ یُسۡرࣰا
verily, with every hardship comes ease!
7
فَإِذَا فَرَغۡتَ فَٱنصَبۡ
Hence, when thou art freed [from distress], remain steadfast,
8
وَإِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَٱرۡغَب
and unto thy Sustainer turn with love.
