Surah “The City, This Countryside”

I swear by this city (Makkah)

And you are free (from sin, to punish the enemies of Islam on the Day of the conquest) in this city (Makkah)

And by the begetter (i.e. Adam ) and that which he begot (i.e. his progeny)

Verily, We have created man in toil

Thinks he that none can overcome him

He says (boastfully): "I have wasted wealth in abundance!"

Thinks he that none sees him

Have We not made for him a pair of eyes

And a tongue and a pair of lips

And shown him the two ways (good and evil)

But he has made no effort to pass on the path that is steep

And what will make you know the path that is steep

(It is) Freeing a neck (slave, etc.

Or giving food in a day of hunger (famine)

To an orphan near of kin

Or to a Miskeen (poor) afflicted with misery

Then he became one of those who believed, and recommended one another to perseverance and patience, and (also) recommended one another to pity and compassion

They are those on the Right Hand (the dwellers of Paradise)

But those who disbelieved in Our Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.), they are those on the Left Hand (the dwellers of Hell)

The Fire will be shut over them (i.e. they will be enveloped by the Fire without any opening or window or outlet
