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

Nay! I swear by this City,

while you (O Prophet), have been made lawful in this City.

And I swear by father and the children he begot

that We have indeed created man in toil.

Does he think that no one will have power over him?

He says, "I have squandered heaps of wealth."

Does he think that no one has seen him?

Have We not given him two eyes,

and a tongue and two lips,

and shown him both the highways (of good and evil)?

Yet he has not attempted the steep pass.

And what do you know what the steep pass is?

It is the freeing of a neck from bondage,

or the feeding in a day of hunger

of a nearly related orphan,

or a poor man lying in the dust

Then (besides) one should be of those who have believed and exhorted one another to patience and exhorted one another to mercy (for God's creatures).

These are the people of the right hand.

As for those who refuse to believe in Our Revelations, they are the people of the left hand.

They shall have a Fire enveloping them.
