In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
| 96:1 | Proclaim! (or read!) in the name of thy Lord and Cherisher, Who created- | | 96:2 | Created man, out of a (mere) clot of congealed blood: | | 96:3 | Proclaim! And thy Lord is Most Bountiful,- | | 96:4 | He Who taught (the use of) the pen,- | | 96:5 | Taught man that which he knew not. | | 96:6 | Day, but man doth transgress all bounds, | | 96:7 | In that he looketh upon himself as self-sufficient. | | 96:8 | Verily, to thy Lord is the return (of all). | | 96:9 | Seest thou one who forbids- | | 96:10 | A votary when he (turns) to pray? | | 96:11 | Seest thou if he is on (the road of) Guidance?- | | 96:12 | Or enjoins Righteousness? | | 96:13 | Seest thou if he denies (Truth) and turns away? | | 96:14 | Knoweth he not that God doth see? | | 96:15 | Let him beware! If he desist not, We will drag him by the forelock,- | | 96:16 | A lying, sinful forelock! | | 96:17 | Then, let him call (for help) to his council (of comrades): | | 96:18 | We will call on the angels of punishment (to deal with him)! | | 96:19 | Day, heed him not: But bow down in adoration, and bring thyself the closer (to God)! |
