[89:24]

He will say: Ah, would that I had sent before me (some provision) for my life!

[89:25]

None punisheth as He will punish on that day!

[89:26]

None bindeth as He then will bind.

[89:27]

But ah! thou soul at peace!

[89:28]

Return unto thy Lord, content in His good pleasure!

[89:29]

Enter thou among My bondmen!

[89:30]

Enter thou My Garden!

The City

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

[90:1]

Nay, I swear by this city -

[90:2]

And thou art an indweller of this city -

[90:3]

And the begetter and that which he begat,

[90:4]

We verily have created man in an atmosphere:

[90:5]

Thinketh he that none hath power over him ?

[90:6]

And he saith: I have destroyed vast wealth:

[90:7]

Thinketh he that none beholdeth him ?

[90:8]

Did We not assign unto him two eyes

[90:9]

And a tongue and two lips,

[90:10]

And guide him to the parting of the mountain ways ?

[90:11]

But he hath not attempted the Ascent -

[90:12]

Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Ascent is! -

[90:13]

(It is) to free a slave,

[90:14]

And to feed in the day of hunger.

[90:15]

An orphan near of kin,

[90:16]

Or some poor wretch in misery,

[90:17]

And to be of those who believe and exhort one another to perseverance and exhort one another to pity.

[90:18]

Their place will be on the right hand.

[90:19]

But those who disbelieve Our revelations, their place will be on the left hand.

[90:20]

Fire will be an awning over them.
