Surah 94: Al-Inshirah (Solace, Consolation, Relief)

The Meaning of the Glorious Koran, trans. Marmaduke Pickthall

Text

1Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,

2And eased thee of the burden

3Which weighed down thy back;

4And exalted thy fame?

5But lo! with hardship goeth ease,

6Lo! with hardship goeth ease;

7So when thou art relieved, still toil

8And strive to please thy Lord.
