أَلَمْ نَشْرَحْ لَكَ صَدْرَكَ

1. Have We not opened your breast for you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم)?

وَوَضَعْنَا عَنكَ وِزْرَكَ

2. And removed from you your burden.

ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنقَضَ ظَهْرَكَ

3. Which weighed down your back?

وَرَفَعْنَا لَكَ ذِكْرَكَ

4. And have We not raised high your fame?

فَإِنَّ مَعَ ٱلْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا

5. Verily, along with every hardship is relief,

إِنَّ مَعَ ٱلْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا

6. Verily, along with every hardship is relief (i.e. there is one hardship with two reliefs, so one hardship cannot overcome two reliefs).

فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ فَٱنصَبْ

7. So when you have finished (your occupation), devote yourself for Allah’s worship.

وَإِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَٱرْغَب

8. And to your Lord (Alone) turn (all your) intentions and hopes.
