Aqimi alssalata lidulooki alshshamsi ila ghasaqi allayli waqur-ana alfajri inna qur-ana alfajri kana mashhoodan\n78. Establish regular prayers\u2014\n At the sun's decline\nTill the darkness of the night,\n And the morning prayer\n And reading: for the prayer\n And reading in the morning\n Carry their testimony.\n79. Wamina allayli fatahajjad bihi nafilatan laka AAasa an yabAAathaka rabbuka maqaman mahmoodan\n79. And pray in the small watches\n Of the morning: (it would be)\n An additional prayer\n (Or spiritual profit)\n For thee: soon will thy Lord\n Raise thee to a Station\n Of Praise and Glory!\n80. Waqul rabbi adkhilnee mudkhala sidqin waakhrijnee mukhraja sidqin waijAAal lee min ladunka sultanan naseeran\n80. Say: \"O my Lord!\n Let my entry be\n By the Gate of Truth\n And Honour, and likewise\n My exit by the Gate\n Of Truth and Honour;\n And grant me\n From Thy Presence\n An authority to aid (me).\n81. Waqul jaa alhaqqu wazahaqa albatilu inna albatila kana zahooqan\n81. And say: \"Truth has (now)\n Arrived, and Falsehood perished:\n For Falsehood is (by its nature)\n Bound to perish.\"\n82. Wanunazzilu mina alqur-ani ma huwa shifaon warahmatun lilmu/mineena wala yazeedu alththalimeena illa khasaran\n82. We send down (stage by stage)\n In the Qur-\u0101n that which\n Is a healing and a mercy\n To those who believe:\n To the unjust it causes\n Nothing but loss after loss.\n83. Wa-itha anAAamna AAala al-insani aAArada wanaa bijanibihi wa-itha massahu alshsharru kana yaoosan\n83. Yet when We bestow\n Our favours on man,\n He turns away and becomes\n Remote on his side (instead\n Of coming to Us), and when\n Evil seizes him he\n Gives himself up to despair!\n84. Qul kullun yaAAmalu AAala shakilatihi farabbukum aAAlamu biman huwa ahda sabeelan\n84. Say: \"Everyone acts\n According to his own disposition:\n But your Lord knows best\n Who it is that is\n Best guided on the Way.\"","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra XVII.: Ban\u012b Isr\u0101-\u012bl, ...","type":"page"}
