Al Insaan

Shakir

1 There surely came over man a period of time when he was a thing not worth mentioning.

Shakir

2 Surely We have created man from a small life - germ uniting (itself): We mean to try him, so We have made him hearing, seeing.

Shakir

3 Surely We have shown him the way: he may be thankful or unthankful.

Shakir

4 Surely We have prepared for the unbelievers chains and shackles and a burning fire.

Shakir

5 Surely the righteous shall drink of a cup the admixture of which is camphor

Shakir

6 A fountain from which the servants of Allah shall drink; they make it to flow a (goodly) flowing forth.

Shakir

7 They fulfill vows and fear a day the evil of which shall be spreading far and wide.

Shakir

8 And they give food out of love for Him to the poor and the orphan and the captive:

Shakir

9 We only feed you for Allah's sake; we desire from you neither reward nor thanks:

Shakir

10 Surely we fear from our Lord a stern, distressful day.

Shakir

11 Therefore Allah win guard them from the evil of that day and cause them to meet with ease and happiness;

Shakir

12 And reward them, because they were patient, with garden and silk,

Shakir

13 Reclining therein on raised couches, they shall find therein neither (the severe heat of) the sun nor intense cold.

Shakir

14 And close down upon them (shall be) its shadows, and its fruits shall be made near (to them), being easy to reach.

Shakir

15 And there shall be made to go round about them vessels of silver and goblets which are of glass,

Shakir

16 (Transparent as) glass, made of silver; they have measured them according to a measure.

Shakir

17 And they shall be made to drink therein a cup the admixture of which shall be ginger,

Shakir

18 (Of) a fountain therein which is named Salsabil.

Shakir

19 And round about them shall go youths never altering in age; when you see them you will think them to be scattered pearls.

Shakir

20 And when you see there, you shall see blessings and a great kingdom.

Shakir

21 Upon them shall be garments of fine green silk and thick silk interwoven with gold, and they shall be adorned with bracelets of silver, and their Lord shall make them drink a pure drink.

Shakir

22 Surely this is a reward for you, and your striving shall be recompensed.

Shakir

23 Surely We Ourselves have revealed the Quran to you revealing (it) in portions.

Shakir

24 Therefore wait patiently for the command of your Lord, and obey not from among them a sinner or an ungrateful one.

Shakir

25 And glorify the name of your Lord morning and evening.

Shakir

26 And during part of the night adore Him, and give glory to Him (a) long (part of the) night.

Shakir

27 Surely these love the transitory and neglect a grievous day before them.

Shakir

28 We created them and made firm their make, and when We please We will bring in their place the likes of them by a change.

Shakir

29 Surely this is a reminder, so whoever pleases takes to his Lord a way.

Shakir

30 And you do not please except that Allah please, surely Allah is Knowing, Wise;

Shakir

31 He makes whom He pleases to enter into His mercy; and (as for) the unjust, He has prepared for them a painful chastisement.
