1
Was there not a long period of time when man has not been worth mentioning?
2
Yes, We have created man from a drop of mixed seed! Yes, to test him We gave him hearing and sight!
3
Yes, We guided him — both thankful and disbelieving!
4
Yes, We prepared chains, restraints, and a Fire for the disbelievers!
5
Verily, the righteous shall be drinking from a cup a mixture with [the water of] Kafur,
6
the fountain from which the servants of God drink, thereby speeding its flow.
7
They abide by their vows and dread the Day, the furor of which will be out of control.
8
For the love of Him they feed the poor, the orphan, and the captive:
9
“We feed you for God’s sake, and we don’t expect from you any reward or gratitude.
10
Verily, we fear from our Lord a gloomy and distressful Day!”
11
But God will save them from the furor of that Day! He will shower them with light and joy.
12
He will reward them for their patience with a Garden and silk.
13
They shall be reclining on couches, protected from the sun and the cold.
14
The shade shall spread over them, and low over them shall hang clusters [of fruit].
15
’Round them shall be passed silver vessels and goblets of crystal,
16
of silver crystal of [the desired] capacity.
17
They shall be offered cups with a mixture with ginger
18
from the fountain called Salsabil.
19
They shall be attended by perpetually young men. If you saw them, you would think they were scattered pearls!
20
Look [around], and you will see joy and a great dominion!
21
They wear silk and brocade, and silver bracelets, and their Lord gives them a pure beverage to drink.
22
Verily, such is the reward for your efforts!
23
— [O Muhammad!] We are sending you the Koran in parts.
24
Wait patiently for the commands of your Lord and do not follow the sinners and renegades.
25
Celebrate the Name of your Lord mornings and evenings.
26
Prostrate yourself before Him part of the night or glorify Him throughout the long night.
27
Verily, they love the fleeting [life] and pay no attention to the grievous Day.
28
We have created them and strengthened their joints, but had it pleased Us, We would have replaced [them] by others like them.
29
Verily, this is a Reminder! Let anyone who wills follow the path of his Lord!
30
But you cannot will what God does not will. Verily, God is knowing and wise!
