“
From the mischief of the Whisperer (of Evil), who withdraws (after his whisper),-
“
The god (or judge) of Mankind,-
“
The King (or Ruler) of Mankind,
“
Say: I seek refuge with the Lord and Cherisher of Mankind,
“
And from the mischief of the envious one as he practises envy.
“
From the mischief of those who practise secret arts;
“
From the mischief of Darkness as it overspreads;
“
From the mischief of created things;
“
Say: I seek refuge with the Lord of the Dawn
“
And there is none like unto Him.
“
He begetteth not, nor is He begotten;
“
Allah, the Eternal, Absolute;
“
Say: He is Allah, the One and Only;
“
A twisted rope of palm-leaf fibre round her (own) neck!
“
His wife shall carry the (crackling) wood - As fuel!-
“
Burnt soon will he be in a Fire of Blazing Flame!
“
No profit to him from all his wealth, and all his gains!
“
Perish the hands of the Father of Flame! Perish he!
“
Celebrate the praises of thy Lord, and pray for His Forgiveness: For He is Oft-Returning (in Grace and Mercy).
“
And thou dost see the people enter Allah's Religion in crowds,
