What It Means: Reading in Context
This is the closing verse of Ash-Sharh and completes the instruction in 94:7. Pickthall’s wording is preserved. Other translations on the linked page express the direction of longing and attention towards the Lord. Read the pair alongside the earlier reassurance about hardship and ease. This entry presents Qur’an 94:8 from Surah Ash-Sharh, with Arabic text and Marmaduke Pickthall’s English translation. The translation conveys meaning in English; it is not a replacement for the Arabic Qur’an. Read the linked passage with the verses before and after it, particularly when a sentence continues across verse boundaries. The topics shown here are editorial reading aids rather than an exhaustive interpretation of the passage. Our short reflection offers a possible practical response, clearly separated from scripture. It should not be repeated as a verse, hadith or authoritative tafsir. For detailed interpretation or questions about religious practice, consult qualified scholarship and the complete source.
