Surah Ash-Sharh

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ أَلَمْ نَشْرَحْ لَكَ صَدْرَكَ ﴿1﴾

Alam nashrah laka sadrak

Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,

وَوَضَعْنَا عَنكَ وِزْرَكَ ﴿2﴾

Wa wa d'ana 'anka wizrak

And eased thee of the burden

ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنقَضَ ظَهْرَكَ ﴿3﴾

Allazee anqada zahrak

Which weighed down thy back;

وَرَفَعْنَا لَكَ ذِكْرَكَ ﴿4﴾

Wa raf 'ana laka zikrak

And exalted thy fame?

فَإِنَّ مَعَ ٱلْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا ﴿5﴾

Fa inna ma'al usri yusra

But lo! with hardship goeth ease,

إِنَّ مَعَ ٱلْعُسْرِ يُسْرًۭا ﴿6﴾

Inna ma'al 'usri yusra

Lo! with hardship goeth ease;

فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ فَٱنصَبْ ﴿7﴾

Fa iza faragh ta fansab

So when thou art relieved, still toil

وَإِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَٱرْغَب ﴿8﴾

Wa ilaa rabbika far ghab

And strive to please thy Lord.
