They will cry, “I wish I had sent forth ˹something good˺ for my ˹true˺ life.”
89:24
On that Day He will punish ˹them˺ severely, like no other,
89:25
and bind ˹them˺ tightly, like no other.1
89:26
˹Allah will say to the righteous,˺ “O tranquil soul!
89:27
Return to your Lord, well pleased ˹with Him˺ and well pleasing ˹to Him˺.
89:28
So join My servants,
89:29
and enter My Paradise.”
89:30
I do swear by this city ˹of Mecca˺—
90:1
even though you ˹O Prophet˺ are subject to abuse in this city—
90:2
and by every parent and ˹their˺ child!
90:3
Indeed, We have created humankind in ˹constant˺ struggle.
90:4
Do they think that no one has power over them,
90:5
boasting, “I have wasted enormous wealth!”?
90:6
Do they think that no one sees them?
90:7
Have We not given them two eyes,
90:8
a tongue, and two lips;
90:9
and shown them the two ways ˹of right and wrong˺?
90:10
If only they had attempted the challenging path ˹of goodness instead˺!
90:11
And what will make you realize what ˹attempting˺ the challenging path is?
90:12
It is to free a slave,
90:13
or to give food in times of famine
90:14
to an orphaned relative
90:15
or to a poor person in distress,
90:16
and—above all—to be one of those who have faith and urge each other to perseverance and urge each other to compassion.
90:17
These are the people of the right.
90:18
As for those who deny Our signs, they are the people of the left.1
90:19
The Fire will be sealed over them.
90:20
