أَلَمْ نَشْرَحْ لَكَ صَدْرَكَ ﴿١﴾
Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,
94th surah of the Quran
The Consolation
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
أَلَمْ نَشْرَحْ لَكَ صَدْرَكَ ﴿١﴾
Have We not caused thy bosom to dilate,
وَوَضَعْنَا عَنكَ وِزْرَكَ ﴿٢﴾
And eased thee of the burden
ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنقَضَ ظَهْرَكَ ﴿٣﴾
Which weighed down thy back;
وَرَفَعْنَا لَكَ ذِكْرَكَ ﴿٤﴾
And exalted thy fame?
فَإِنَّ مَعَ ٱلْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا ﴿٥﴾
But lo! with hardship goeth ease,
إِنَّ مَعَ ٱلْعُسْرِ يُسْرًۭا ﴿٦﴾
Lo! with hardship goeth ease;
فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ فَٱنصَبْ ﴿٧﴾
So when thou art relieved, still toil
وَإِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَٱرْغَب ﴿٨﴾
And strive to please thy Lord.
