Description

(90:1) Nay! I swear by this city (90:2) – this city wherein you have been rendered violable– (90:3) and I swear by the parent and his offspring: (90:4) Verily We have created man into toil and hardship. (90:5) Does he think that no one can overpower him? (90:6) He says: “I have squandered enormous wealth.” (90:7) Does he believe that none has seen him? (90:8) Did We not grant him two eyes, (90:9) and a tongue and two lips? (90:10) And did We not show him the two highroads (of good and evil)? (90:11) But he did not venture to scale the difficult steep. (90:12) And what do you know what that difficult steep is? (90:13) It is freeing someone's neck from slavery; (90:14) or giving food on a day of hunger (90:15) to an orphan near of kin; (90:16) or to a destitute lying in dust; (90:17) and, then besides this, he be one of those who believed, and enjoined upon one another steadfastness and enjoined upon one another compassion. (90:18) These are the People of the Right Hand. (90:19) As for those who rejected Our Signs, they are the People of the Left Hand. (90:20) Upon them shall be a Fire that will hem them in.

Quran English Translation by Zafar Ishaq Ansari This is the Book! There is no doubt about it—a guide for those mindful ˹of God˺. who believe in the unseen, establish prayer, and donate from what We have provided for them, [Quran 2:2-3] Blessed is the One Who sent down the Standard (Quran: distinguish between right and wrong) to His servant(Prophet Muḥammad peace be upon him), so that he may be a warner to the whole world. [Quran 25:1] And We have truly set forth every ˹kind of˺ lesson for humanity in this Quran, yet most people persist in disbelief. [Quran 17:89]
