Did We not expand for you, [O Muḥammad], your breast?

وَوَضَعْنَا عَنْكَ وِزْرَكَۙ

And We removed from you your burden

الَّذِيْٓ اَنْقَضَ ظَهْرَكَۙ

Allażī anqaḍa ẓahrak(a).

Which had weighed upon your back

وَرَفَعْنَا لَكَ ذِكْرَكَۗ

And raised high for you your repute.

فَاِنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ يُسْرًاۙ

For indeed, with hardship [will be] ease [i.e., relief].

اِنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ يُسْرًاۗ
