الشرح
أَلَم نَشرَح لَكَ صَدرَكَ ﴿1﴾
Did We not expand for you, [O Muhammad], your breast?
وَوَضَعنا عَنكَ وِزرَكَ ﴿2﴾
And We removed from you your burden
الَّذى أَنقَضَ ظَهرَكَ ﴿3﴾
Which had weighed upon your back
وَرَفَعنا لَكَ ذِكرَكَ ﴿4﴾
And raised high for you your repute.
فَإِنَّ مَعَ العُسرِ يُسرًا ﴿5﴾
For indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.
إِنَّ مَعَ العُسرِ يُسرًا ﴿6﴾
Indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.
فَإِذا فَرَغتَ فَانصَب ﴿7﴾
So when you have finished [your duties], then stand up [for worship].
وَإِلىٰ رَبِّكَ فَارغَب ﴿8﴾
And to your Lord direct [your] longing.
