Sura XCVI (96)
Thick Blood/Clots of Blood
(
________________________________________
In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Recite
thou, in the name of thy Lord who created; --
Created
man from Clots of Blood: --
Recite
thou! For thy Lord is the most Beneficent,
Who
hath taught the use of the pen; --
Hath
taught Man that which he knoweth not.
Nay,
verily, Man is insolent,
Because
he seeth himself possessed of riches.
Verily,
to thy Lord is the return of all.
What
thinkest thou of him that holdeth back
96:10 A servant of God when he prayeth?
What
thinkest thou? Hath he followed the true Guidance, or enjoined Piety?
What
thinkest thou? Hath he treated the truth as a lie and turned his back?
What!
doth he not know how that God seeth?
Nay,
verily, if he desist not, We shall seize him by the forelock,
The
lying sinful forelock!
Then
let him summon his associates;
We too
will summon the guards of Hell:
Nay!
obey him not; but adore, and draw nigh to God.
