90:1
Not [need]
I
swear by this territory—
90:2
While
you
are entirely rightful in this territory.
90:3
By every begetter and what he begot,
90:4
WE
did create man in a distended belly
90:5
Does man figure no one is measuring out for him?
90:6
He says, “I have exhausted copious wealth.”
90:7
Does he figure that no one sees him?
90:8
Have
WE
not rendered two eyes for him?
90:9
And a tongue and two lips?
90:10
And
WE
have shown him two conspicuous roads?
90:11
Yet, he did not charge up the
Aqaba
.
90:12
And what has made
you
ascertain what the
Aqaba
is
—
90:13
freeing of a slave
90:14
or feeding, in a time of consuming hunger,
90:15
an orphan, with claim of proximity
90:16
or a poor one, out in the dust.
90:17
Then he would be of the ones who have believed, and [embraced and] enjoined patience, and [embraced and] enjoined compassion.
90:18
Those are the companions of the consecrated Right.
90:19
And the ones who have disbelieved in
OUR
signs, they are the companions of the condemned Left.
90:20
A closed fire over them.
