Surah “The Courser, The Chargers, The Assulters”

as rendered by John Medows Rodwell — 11 verses

By the snorting CHARGERS
And those that dash off sparks of fire
And those that scour to the attack at morn
And stir therein the dust aloft
And cleave therein their midway through a host
Truly, Man is to his Lord ungrateful
And of this he is himself a witness
And truly, he is vehement in the love of this world's good
Ah! knoweth he not, that when that which is in the graves shall be laid bare
And that which is in men's breasts shall be brought forth
Verily their Lord shall on that day be informed concerning them
