| 76:1 | | Undoubtedly, there has come upon man a time when there was no mentioning of his name anywhere. |
| 76:2 | | Undoubtedly, We created man from a mingled sperm drop that We might try him, so We made him hearing, seeing. |
| 76:3 | | Undoubtedly, We have shown him the way, whether he be grateful or ungrateful. |
| 76:4 | | Undoubtedly, We have already prepared for the infidels' chains and iron collars and a blazing fire. |
| 76:5 | | Undoubtedly, the virtuous will drink of a cup whereof the admixture is camphor. |
| 76:6 | | What is the camphor, it is spring wherefrom the most special bondmen of Allah will drink. They will make it gush forth wherever they would like in their places |
| 76:7 | | They fulfil their vows, and fear a day the evil of which is wide-spread. |
| 76:8 | | And they feed, for love of Him, the poor. The orphan and the prisoner. |
| 76:9 | | They say to them, 'We feed you for Allah pleasure only. We desire no recompense or thanks from you'. |
| 76:10 | | Undoubtedly, we fear from our Lord a day, which is frowning and very hard. |
| 76:11 | | So Allah has saved them from the evil of that day and granted them cheerfulness and happiness. |
| 76:12 | | And recompensed them for their patience with a Garden, and silken clothes. |
| 76:13 | | They will be reclined upon coaches in the Garden neither they will see therein sunny heat nor excessive cold. |
| 76:14 | | And its shades will be inclined over them, and its clusters would have been made hanging down. |
| 76:15 | | And there shall be passed around them silver vessels and goblets, which will be bright as glass. |
| 76:16 | | What type of glass, glass of silver, the cupbearers would have placed them on complete measurement. |
| 76:17 | | Therein, they shall be made to drink a cup whose mixture will be ginger. |
| 76:18 | | What ginger is, it is a spring in the Paradise called Sal-Sabil. |
| 76:19 | | And never aging youths shall go around them for service, when you see them; you think them to be pearls sprinkled. |
| 76:20 | | And when you look to them, you see a bliss and a great Kingdom. |
| 76:21 | | Upon their bodies, there are green silken garments and brocade and are made to wear bracelets of silver. And their Lord made them to drink pure beverage. |
| 76:22 | | It will be told to them, this is your recompense, and your labour bore fruits. |
| 76:23 | | Undoubtedly We have sent down the Quran on you in piece-meal. |
| 76:24 | | So be you patient under the order of your Lord, and hear not anyone of them sinner or unthankful. |
| 76:25 | | And remember the name of your Lord morning and evening. |
| 76:26 | | And in part of night, prostrate yourself before Him and magnify Him through the long night. |
| 76:27 | | Undoubtedly these people love the things under feet, and has already left behind a heavy day. |
| 76:28 | | We created them, and strengthened their joints, and when We will, We shall exchange their likes |
| 76:29 | | Undoubtedly, this is an admonition, so whoever wishes may take a way unto his Lord. |
| 76:30 | | And what you will, but only this Allah wills. Undoubtedly, He is All-Knowing, Wise |
| 76:31 | | He causes whom He pleases to enter His mercy, and for the unjust, He has already kept prepared a painful torment |
