In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful

No! I do swear by this city

And you are the dweller of this city

And the begetter and that which you begot

Verily, we have created man in to toil and struggle

Who thinks that none has power over him?

And he (boastfully) says I have squandered wealth in abundance!

Does he think no-one sees him?

Did we not assign to him two eyes

And a tongue and two lips

And guided him along the two mountain ways?

But he has not attempted to ascent

What will convey to you , what the ascent is?

(It is) to free a slave

And to feed in the day of hunger,

An orphan relative

or some poor person in misery

And to be of those who believe and exhort one another to perseverance and exhort one another to (taking) pity

Their place will be on the right hand

But those who disbelieve our revelations their place will be on the left hand

Fire will be an awning on them
