Has there come on man a while of time when he was a thing unremembered
We created man of a sperm-drop, a mingling, and We made him hearing, seeing
Surely We guided him upon the way whether he be thankful or unthankful
Surely We have prepared for the unbelievers chains, fetters, and a Blaze
Surely the pious shall drink of a cup whose mixture is camphor
a fountain whereat drink the servants of God, making it to gush forth plenteously
They fulfil their vows, and fear a day whose evil is upon the wing
they give food, for the love of Him, to the needy, the orphan, the captive
'We feed you only for the Face of God; we desire no recompense from you, no thankfulness
for we fear from our Lord a frowning day, inauspicious
So God has guarded them from the evil of that day, and has procured them radiancy and gladness
and recompensed them for their patience with a Garden, and silk
therein they shall recline upon couches, therein they shall see neither sun nor bitter cold
near them shall be its shades, and its clusters hung meekly down
and there shall be passed around them vessels of silver, and goblets of crystal
crystal of silver that they have measured -- very exactly
And therein they shall be given to drink a cup whose mixture is ginger
therein a fountain whose name is called Salsabil
Immortal youths shall go about them; when thou seest them, thou supposest them scattered pearls
when thou seest them then thou seest bliss and a great kingdom
Upon them shall be green garments of silk and brocade; they are adorned with bracelets of silver, and their Lord shall give them to drink a pure draught
Behold, this is a recompense for you, and your striving is thanked.
Surely We have sent down the Koran on thee, a sending down
so be thou patient under the judgment of thy Lord, and obey not one of them, sinner or unbeliever
And remember the Name of thy Lord at dawn and in the evening
and part of the night; bow down before Him and magnify Him through the long night
Surely these men love the hasty world, and leave be behind them a heavy day
We created them, and We strengthened their joints; and, when We will, We shall exchange their likes
Surely this is a Reminder; so he who will, takes unto his Lord a way
But you will not unless God wills; surely God is ever All-knowing, All-wise
For He admits into His mercy whomsoever He will; as for the evildoers, He has prepared for them a painful chastisement
