| 90:1 | | No! I swear by this land | | 90:2 | | and thou art a lodger in this land | | 90:3 | | by the begetter, and that he begot | | 90:4 | | indeed, We created man in trouble | | 90:5 | | What, does he think none has power over him | | 90:6 | | saying, 'I have consumed wealth abundant' | | 90:7 | | What, does he think none has seen him | | 90:8 | | Have We not appointed to him two eyes | | 90:9 | | and a tongue, and two lips | | 90:10 | | and guided him on the two highways | | 90:11 | | Yet he has not assaulted the steep | | 90:12 | | and what shall teach thee what is the steep | | 90:13 | | The freeing of a slave | | 90:14 | | or giving food upon a day of hunge | | 90:15 | | to an orphan near of ki | | 90:16 | | or a needy man in misery | | 90:17 | | then that he become of those who believe and counsel each other to be steadfast, and counsel each other to be merciful | | 90:18 | | Those are the Companions of the Right Hand | | 90:19 | | And those who disbelieve in Our signs, they are the Companions of the Left Hand | | 90:20 | | over them is a Fire covered down |
