[54:50]

And Our commandment is but one (commandment), as the twinkling of an eye.

[54:51]

And verily We have destroyed your fellows; but is there any that remembereth ?

[54:52]

And every thing they did is in the scriptures,

[54:53]

And every small and great thing is recorded.

[54:54]

Lo! the righteous will dwell among gardens and rivers,

[54:55]

Firmly established in the favour of a Mighty King.

The Beneficent

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

[55:1]

The Beneficent

[55:2]

Hath made known the Qur’an.

[55:3]

He hath created man.

[55:4]

He hath taught him utterance.

[55:5]

The sun and the moon are made punctual.

[55:6]

The stars and the trees adore.

[55:7]

And the sky He hath uplifted; and He hath set the measure,

[55:8]

That ye exceed not the measure,

[55:9]

But observe the measure strictly, nor fall short thereof.

[55:10]

And the earth hath He appointed for (His) creatures,

[55:11]

Wherein are fruit and sheathed palm-trees,

[55:12]

Husked grain and scented herb.

[55:13]

Which is it, of the favours of your Lord, that ye deny ?

[55:14]

He created man of clay like the potter’s,

[55:15]

And the jinn did He create of smokeless fire.

[55:16]

Which is it, of the favours of your Lord, that ye deny ?
