90:1 | | Nay, I call to witness this City | 90:2 | | And thou wilt be made free from obligation in this City - | 90:3 | | And the begetter and he whom he begot | 90:4 | | We have certainly created man to face difficulties | 90:5 | | Does he think that no one has power over him | 90:6 | | He will say: I have wasted much wealth | 90:7 | | Does he think that no one sees him | 90:8 | | Have We not given him two eyes | 90:9 | | And a tongue and two lips | 90:10 | | And pointed out to him the two conspicuous ways | 90:11 | | But he attempts not the uphill road | 90:12 | | And what will make thee comprehend what the uphill road is | 90:13 | | (It is) to free a slave | 90:14 | | Or to feed in a day of hunge | 90:15 | | An orphan nearly related | 90:16 | | Or the poor man lying in the dust | 90:17 | | Then he is of those who believe and exhort one another to patience, and exhort one another to mercy | 90:18 | | These are the people of the right hand | 90:19 | | And those who disbelieve in Our messages, they are the people of the left hand | 90:20 | | On them is Fire closed over |
