Surah Al-'Adiyat (العاديات)
The Courser · Meccan · 11 ayahs · Juz 30
- 100:1
وَٱلْعَـٰدِيَـٰتِ ضَبْحًا
By (the oath of) the horses that pant as they gallop (into the thick of battle during Jihaad)!
- 100:2
فَٱلْمُورِيَـٰتِ قَدْحًا
By the sparks that fly from the striking of their hooves (as they gallop)!
- 100:3
فَٱلْمُغِيرَٰتِ صُبْحًا
By their assault (attack on the Kuffaar enemies with their Mu'min masters) at dawn...
- 100:4
فَأَثَرْنَ بِهِۦ نَقْعًا
...causing the dust to fly (as they race forward)...
- 100:5
فَوَسَطْنَ بِهِۦ جَمْعًا
...and penetrating the midst of the enemy's ranks (despite the fear of being killed, only because of their loyalty to their masters).
- 100:6
إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنَ لِرَبِّهِۦ لَكَنُودٌ
Undoubtedly man (unlike these brave horses) is extremely ungrateful to his Rabb. (Whereas these horses are prepared to give their lives for their masters because of the care they receive, man refuses to obey Allaah's commands even though Allaah created him and provides everything he needs.)
- 100:7
وَإِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ ذَٰلِكَ لَشَهِيدٌ
(Far from being ignorant of his ungrateful behaviour) Indeed, he (man) is also a witness (sees) to this fact (because it is undeniable).
