Surah “The Fig, The Figtree”

as rendered by Muhammad Asad — 8 verses

CONSIDER the fig and the olive
and Mount Sinai
and this land secure
Verily, We create man in the best conformation
and thereafter We reduce him to the lowest of low
excepting only such as attain to faith and do good works: and theirs shall be a reward unending
What, then, [O man,] could henceforth cause thee to give the lie to this moral law
Is not God the most just of judges
