Ash-Sharh (Al-Inshirah)

أَلَمْ نَشْرَحْ لَكَ صَدْرَكَ

Have We not expanded thee thy breast?-

وَوَضَعْنَا عَنكَ وِزْرَكَ

And removed from thee thy burden

ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنقَضَ ظَهْرَكَ

The which did gall thy back?-

وَرَفَعْنَا لَكَ ذِكْرَكَ

And raised high the esteem (in which) thou (art held)?

فَإِنَّ مَعَ ٱلْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا

So, verily, with every difficulty, there is relief:

إِنَّ مَعَ ٱلْعُسْرِ يُسْرًۭا

Verily, with every difficulty there is relief.

فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ فَٱنصَبْ

Therefore, when thou art free (from thine immediate task), still labour hard,

وَإِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَٱرْغَب

And to thy Lord turn (all) thy attention.
