Sūrat Al-ʿĀdiyāt (Arabic: سورة العاديات‎ ) (The Courser, The Chargers) is the 100th sura of the Qur'an with 11 verses (ayat).

Classification Meccan
Other names (Eng.) The Chargers, The Assaulters
Position Juz' 30
Structure 11 verses

Allah in the beginning of this surah is referring to the steeds that charge into battle in early morning (the preferred time of attack by the prophet Muhammad. He waited to hear the athan from the other side, if it was not heard he would attack.

Other scholars have said that the beginning of this surah refers to how horses behave toward their masters, yet us, the mankind continues to disobey our master, Allah, and so, therefore horses are better than man.

The sura adds that mankind is evidence against itself of these sins. On the Last Day, "when that which is in the tombs is overthrown and that which is in the breasts is brought out," people will be judged according to what their hearts intended in life. The sura concludes with the reminder that while men are fully aware of what they are doing and why, God is even more aware - what is hidden in men's hearts is known to God.

The sura can be translated into English as:

By the racers, panting, (1)

And the producers of sparks [when] striking (2)

And the chargers at dawn, (3)

Stirring up thereby [clouds of] dust, (4)

Arriving thereby in the center collectively, (5)

Indeed mankind, to his Lord, is ungrateful. (6)

And indeed, he is to that a witness. (7)

And indeed he is, in love of wealth, intense. (8)

But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered (9)

And that within the breasts is retrieved, (10)

Indeed, their Lord with them, on that Day, is [fully] Acquainted (and on everyday as well). (11)


Another Translation:

By the snorting coursers, (1) Striking sparks of fire (2) And scouring to the raid at dawn, (3) Then, therewith, with their trail of dust, (4) Cleaving, as one, the centre (of the foe), (5) Lo! man is an ingrate unto his Lord (6) And lo! he is a witness unto that; (7) And lo! in the love of wealth he is violent. (8) Knoweth he not that, when the contents of the graves are poured forth (9) And the secrets of the breasts are made known, (10) On that day will their Lord be perfectly informed concerning them. (11)

  • The audio is not felling behind the video. These are completely different.

    Here is the original video posted here which is a lecture on 'Extracting guidance from Quran'

    watch?v=gewt6uI-DQ0&feature=re­lated

    A suggestion to brother aliassad1 is not to mix different video with another audio, because that actually distracts more from concentrating on the message. I've noticed that most of your uploads are created like this. You can try putting a nice image or calligraphy or poster.

  • great description, it gives u a visual to the words of Allah, gives you alot more understanding. And it ties to the time we live in today, Truly humans dont give thanks to Allah,
