English - Chapter 76 - Al-Insan

Has there ever been a period of time when the human being was not something to consider

Indeed We created the human being from a zygote. In order to try them, We then gave him hearing and sight

We showed him the way, but whether they are grateful or ungrateful rests on their will

For the rejecters we have prepared chains and a blazing fire

As for the righteous, they will drink from a cup mixed with kafur

A fountain where the devotees of God drink, making it flow in abundance

They honor their promise, and they are conscious of a day whose harm flies far and wide

And they feed, for the love of God, the indigent, the orphan, and the captive

Saying, “We feed you for the sake of God alone. No reward do we desire from you, nor thanks

“Indeed we fear a day of distressful punishment.”

But God will deliver them from the harm of that day, and will shed over them a light of beauty and joy

And because they were patient and constant, He will reward them with a garden and garments of silk

And the shade of the garden will come low over them, and bunches of fruit there will hang low

And among them will be passed round bowls of silver and goblets of crystal

Crystal and silver. They will determine its amount

And they will be given to drink there, from a cup mixed with zanjabil

A fountain there called Salsabil

And around them will be youth of perpetual innocence. If you see them, you would think they were scattered pearls

And when you look, it is there you will see bliss and a realm magnificent

Upon them will be green garments of fine silk and heavy brocade, and they will be adorned with bracelets of silver, and their Lord will give to them a natural drink

“Indeed this is a reward for you, and your endeavor is accepted and recognized.”

It is We Who have sent down the Quran to you in stages

Therefore, be patient with constancy to the command of your Lord, and do not listen to those who are unethical or the disbeliever among them

And glorify the name or your Lord morning and evening

And part of the night, prostrate yourself to Him, and praise Him throughout the night

As for these, they love the fleeting life, and put away behind them a trying day

It is We who created them, and We have made their forms strong, but when We will, We can substitute the like of them with a change

This is advice, whosoever wills, let him take a path to his Lord

But you cannot, except as God wills, and God is full of Knowledge and Wisdom

He will admit to His mercy whom He wills, but the wrongdoers, for them has He prepared a terrible penalty
