quran

"And when Abraham said: My Lord, make this a secure town and provide its people with fruits, such of them as believe in God and the Last Day. He said: And whoever disbelieves, I shall grant him enjoyment for a short while, then I shall drive him to the chastisement of the Fire. And it is an evil destination."

"Yet there are some men who take for themselves objects of worship besides God, whom they love as they should love God. And those who believe are stronger in (their) love for God. And O that the wrongdoers had seen, when they see the chastisement, that power is wholly God's, and that God is severe in chastising! When those who were followed renounce those who followed (them), and they see the chastisement and their ties are cut asunder. And those who followed will say: If we could but return, we would renounce them as they have renounced us. Thus will God show them their deeds to be intense regret to them, and they will not escape from the Fire."

"Those who disbelieve in the messages of Allah and would slay the prophets unjustly and slay those among men who enjoin justice, announce to them a painful chastisement. Those are they whose works will be of no avail in this world and the Hereafter, and they will have no helpers. Hast thou not seen those who are given a portion of the Book? They are invited to the Book of Allah that it may decide between them, then a party of them turn back and they withdraw. This is because they say: The Fire shall not touch us but for a few days; and that which they forge deceives them regarding their religion. Then how will it be when We gather them together on a day about which there is no doubt. And every soul shall be fully paid what it has earned, and they shall not be wronged?"

"On the day when every soul will find present that which it has done of good; and that which it has done of evil -- it will wish that between it and that (evil) there were a long distance. And Allah cautions you against His retribution. And Allah is Compassionate to the servants."

"When Allah said: O Jesus, I will cause thee to die and exalt thee in My presence and clear thee of those who disbelieve and make those who follow thee above those who disbelieve to the day of Resurrection. Then to Me is your return, so I shall decide between you concerning that wherein you differ."

"Those who take a small price for the covenant of Allah and their own oaths -- they have no portion in the Hereafter, and Allah will not speak to them, nor will He look upon them on the day of Resurrection, nor will He purify them, and for them is a painful chastisement."

"But how will it be when We bring from every people a witness and bring thee as a witness against these? On that day will those who disbelieved and disobeyed the Messenger desire that the earth were levelled with them. And they can hide no fact from Allah."

"Those who disbelieve in Our Messages, we shall make them enter Fire. As often as their skins are burned, We shall change them for other skins, that they may taste the chastisement. Surely Allah is ever Mighty, Wise."

"Those who disbelieve, even if they had all that is in the earth, and the like of it with it, to ransom themselves therewith from the chastisement of the day of Resurrection, it would not be accepted from them and theirs is a painful chastisement. They would desire to come forth from the Fire, and they will not come forth from it, and theirs is a lasting chastisement"

"And on the day We gather them all together, then We shall say to those who set up gods (with Allah): Where are your associate-gods whom you asserted? Then their excuse would be nothing but that they would say: By Allah, our Lord! we were not polytheists."

"And the judging on that day will be just; so as for those whose good deeds are heavy, they are the successful. And as for those whose good deeds are light, those are they who ruined their souls because they disbelieved in Our messages."

"He will say: Enter into the Fire among the nations that have passed away before you from among the jinn and men. Every time a nation enters, it curses its sister until when they all follow one another into it, the last of them will say with regard to the first of them: Our Lord, these led us astray, so give them a double chastisement of the Fire. He will say: Each one has double but you know not. And the first of them will say to the last of them: You have no preference over us, so taste the chastisement for what you earned."

"O you who believe, surely many of the doctors of law and the monks eat away the property of men falsely, and hinder (them) from Allah's way. And those who hoard up gold and silver and spend it not in Allah's way -- announce to them a painful chastisement, On the day when it will be heated in the Fire of hell, then their foreheads and their sides and their backs will be branded with it: This is what you hoarded up for yourselves, so taste what you used to hoard."

"Allah has promised to the believers, men and women, Gardens, wherein flow rivers, to abide therein, and goodly dwellings in Gardens of perpetual abode. And greatest of all is Allah's goodly pleasure. That is the grand achievement."

"And on the day when He will gather them, as though they had not stayed but an hour of the day, they will recognize one another. They perish indeed who reject the meeting with Allah, and they follow not the right way."

"Whoever desires this world's life and its finery We repay them their deeds therein, and they are not made to suffer loss in it. These are they for whom there is nothing but Fire in the Hereafter. And what they work therein is fruitless and their deeds are vain."

"And certainly We sent Moses with Our signs and a dear authority, To Pharaoh and his chiefs, but they followed the bidding of Pharaoh; and Pharaoh's bidding was not right-directing. He will lead his people on the day of Resurrection, and bring them down to the Fire. And evil the place to which they are brought! And they are overtaken by a curse in this (world), and on the day of Resurrection. Evil the gift which shall be given!"

"And We wronged them not but they wronged themselves. And their gods whom they called upon besides Allah availed them naught when the decree of thy Lord came to pass. And they added to them naught but ruin. And such is the punishment of thy Lord, when He punishes the towns while they are iniquitous. Surely His punishment is painful, severe. Surely there is a sign in this for him who fears the chastisement of the Hereafter. That is a day on which people will be gathered together, and that is a day to be witnessed. And We delay it not but for an appointed term. On the day when it comes, no soul will speak except by His permission; so (some) of them will be unhappy and (others) happy. Then as for those who are unhappy, they will be in the Fire; for them therein will be sighing and groaning -- Abiding therein so long as the heavens and the earth endure, except as thy Lord please. Surely thy Lord is Doer of what He intends. And as for those who are made happy, they will be in the Garden abiding therein so long as the heavens and the earth endure, except as thy Lord please -- a gift never to be cut off."

"Then on the Resurrection day He will bring them to disgrace and say: Where are My partners, for whose sake you became hostile? Those who are given the knowledge will say: Surely disgrace this day and evil are upon the disbelievers, Whom the angels cause to die, while they are unjust to themselves. Then would they offer submission: We did not do any evil. Nay! Surely Allah knows what you did. So enter the gates of hell, to abide therein. Evil indeed is the dwelling-place of the proud. And it is said to those who guard against evil What has your Lord revealed? They say, Good. For those who do good in this world is good. And certainly the abode of the Hereafter is better. And excellent indeed is the abode of those who keep their duty -- Gardens of perpetuity which they enter, wherein flow rivers: they have therein what they please. Thus does Allah reward those who keep their duty, Whom the angels cause to die in purity, saying: Peace be to you enter the Garden for what you did."

"And on the day when We raise up a witness out of every nation, then permission (to offer excuse) will not be given to the disbelievers, nor will they be allowed to make amends. And when the wrong-doers see the chastisement, it will not be lightened for them, not will they be respited. And when those who ascribed partners (to Allah) see their associate-gods, they will say: Our Lord, these are our associate-gods on whom we called besides Thee. But they will throw back at them the word: Surely you are liars. And they will tender submission to Allah on that day, and what they used to forge will fail them. Those who disbelieve and hinder (men) from Allah's way, We will add chastisement to their chastisement because they made mischief. And on the day when We raise up in every people a witness against them from among themselves, and bring thee as a witness against these. And We have revealed the Book to thee explaining all. things, and a guidance and mercy and good news for those who submit."

"On the day when every soul will come pleading for itself, and every soul will be paid in full what it has done, and they will not be dealt with unjustly."

"It may be that your Lord will have mercy on you. And if you return (to mischief), We will return (to punishment). And We have made hell a prison for the disbelievers. Surely this Qur'an guides to that which is most upright, and gives good news to the believers who do good that theirs is a great reward, And that those who believe not in the Hereafter, We have prepared for them a painful chastisement. And man prays for evil as he ought to pray for good; and man is ever hasty. And We made the night and the day two signs, then We have made the sign of the night to pass away and We have made the sign of the day manifest, so that you may seek grace from your Lord, and that you may know the numbering of years and the reckoning. And We have explained everything with distinctness. And We have made every man's actions to cling to his neck, and We shall bring forth to him on the day of Resurrection a book which he will find wide open. Read thy book. Thine own soul is sufficient as a reckoner against thee this day."

"On the day when We shall call every people with their leader: then whoever is given his book in his right hand, these will read their book and they will not be dealt with a whit unjustly. And whoever is blind in this (world) he will be blind in the Hereafter, and further away from the path."

"And the day when We cause the mountains to pass away, and thou seest the earth a levelled plain and We gather them together and leave none of them behind. And they are brought before thy Lord in ranks. Now certainly you have come to Us as We created you at first. Nay, you thought that We had not made an appointment for you. And the book is placed, and thou seest the guilty fearing for what is in it, and they say: O woe to us what a book is this It leaves out neither a small thing nor a great one, but numbers them (all), and they find what they did confronting them. And thy Lord wrongs not any one. And when We said to the angels: Make submission to Adam, they submitted except Iblis. He was of the jinn, so he transgressed the commandment of his Lord. Will you then take him and his offspring for friends rather than Me, and they are your enemies? Evil is the exchange for the unjust. I made them not to witness the creation of the heavens and the earth, nor their own creation. Nor could I take those who mislead for aiders. And one day He will say: Call on those whom you considered to be My partners. So they will call on them, but they will not answer them, and We shall cause a separation between them. And the guilty will see the Fire, and know that they are about to fall into it, and they will find no escape from it."

"How clearly will they hear and see on the day when they come to Us but the wrongdoers are today in manifest error. And warn them of the day of Regret, when the matter is decided. And they are (now) in negligence and they believe not."

"Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, so serve Him and be patient in His service. Knowest thou any one equal to Him? And says man: When I am dead, shall I truly be brought forth alive? Does not man remember that We created him before, when he was nothing? So by thy Lord! We shall certainly gather them together and the devils, then shall We bring them around hell on their knees. Then We shall draw forth from every sect those most rebellious against the Beneficent. Again, We certainly know best those who deserve most to be burned therein. And there is not one of you but shall come to it. This is an unavoidable decree of thy Lord. And We shall deliver those who guard against evil, and leave the wrongdoers therein on their knees."

"And the day when We gather from every nation a party from among those who rejected Our messages, then they will be formed into groups. Until, when they come, He will say did you reject My messages, while you did not comprehend them in knowledge? Or what was it that you did? And the word will come to pass against them because they were unjust, so they will not speak. See they not that We have made the night that they may rest therein, and the day to give light? Surely there are signs in this for a people who believe. And the day when the trumpet is blown, then those in the heavens and those in the earth will be struck with terror, except such as Allah please. And all shall come to Him abased. And thou seest the mountains -- thou thinkest them firmly fixed -- passing away as the passing away of the cloud; the handiwork of Allah, Who has made everything thoroughly. Surely He is Aware of what you do. Whoever brings good, he will have better than it; and they will be secure from terror that day. And whoever brings evil, these will be thrown down on their faces into the Fire. Are you rewarded aught except for what you did?"

"Nay, they say the like of what the ancients said. They say: When we die and become dust and bones, shall we then be raised up? We are indeed promised this, and (so were) our fathers before. This is naught but stories of those of old! Say: Whose is the earth, and whoever is therein, if you know? They will say Allah's. Say: Will you not then mind? Say: Who is the Lord of the seven heavens and the Lord of the mighty Throne of power? They will say: (This is) Allah's. Say: Will you not then guard against evil? Say: Who is it in Whose hand is the kingdom of all things and He protects, and none is prorected against Him, if you know? They will say: (This is) Allah's. Say: Whence are you then deceived?"

"O people, keep your duty to your Lord; surely the shock of the Hour is a grievous thing. The day you see it, every woman giving suck will forget her suckling and every pregnant one will lay down her burden, and thou wilt see men as drunken, yet they will not be drunken, but the chastisement of Allah will be severe. And among men is he who disputes about Allah without knowledge, and follows every rebellious devil -- For him it is written that whoever takes him for a friend, he will lead him astray and conduct him to the chastisement of the burning Fire. O people, if you are in doubt about the Resurrection, then surely We created you from dust, then from a small life-germ, then from a clot, then from a lump of flesh, complete in make and incomplete, that We may make clear to you. And We cause what We please to remain in the wombs till an appointed time, then We bring you forth as babies, then that you may attain your maturity. And of you is he who is caused to die, and of you is he who is brought back to the worst part of life, so that after knowledge he knows nothing. And thou seest the earth barren, but when We send down thereon water, it stirs and swells and brings forth a beautiful (growth) of every kind."

"That He may make what the devil casts a trial for those in whose hearts is a disease and the hardhearted. And surely the wrongdoers are in severe opposition, And that those who have been given knowledge may know that it is the Truth from thy Lord, so they should believe in it that their hearts may be lowly before Him. And surely Allah is the Guide of those who believe, into a right path. And those who disbelieve will not cease to be in doubt concerning it, until the Hour overtakes them suddenly, or there comes to them the chastisement of a destructive day. The kingdom on that day is Allah's. He will judge between them. So those who believe and do good will be in Gardens of bliss. And those who disbelieve and reject Our messages, for them is an abasing chastisement."

"Until when death overtakes one of them, he says: My Lord, send toe back, That I may do good in that which I have left. By no means! It is but a word that he speaks. And before them is a barrier, until the day they are raised. So when the trumpet is blown, there will be no ties of relationship among them that day, nor will they ask of one another. Then those whose good deeds are heavy, those are the successful. And those whose good deeds are light, those are they who have lost their souls, abiding in hell. The Fire will scorch their faces, and they therein will be in severe affliction. Were not My messages recited to you, but you used to reject them? They will say: Our Lord, our adversity overcame us, and we were an erring people. Our Lord, take us out of it; then if we return (to evil), we shall be unjust. He will say: Begone therein, and speak not to Me."

"Surely there was a party of My servants who said: Our Lord, we believe, so forgive us and have mercy on us, and Thou are the Best of those who show mercy. But you ridiculed them, until they made you forget remembrance of Me, and you used to laugh at them. Surely I have rewarded them this day because they were patient, that they are the achievers. He will say: How many years did you tarry in the earth? They will say: We tarried a day or part of a day, but ask those who keep account. He will say: You tarried but a little if you only knew! Do you then think that We have created you in vain, and that you will not be returned to Us? So exalted be Allah, the True King! No God is there but He, the Lord of the Throne of Grace."

"But they deny the Hour, and We have prepared a burning Fire for him who denies the Hour. When it sees them from a far off place, they will hear its raging and roaring. And when they are cast into a narrow place thereof in chains, they will there pray for destruction. Pray nor this day for destruction once but pray for destruction again and again. Say: Is this better or the Garden of Perpetuity, which the dutiful are promised? That is a reward and a resort for them. For them therein is what they desire, to abide. It is a promise to be prayed for from thy Lord. And on the day when He will gather them, and that which they serve besides Allah, He will say: Was it you who led astray these My servants, or did they themselves stray from the path? They will say: Glory be to Thee! it was not beseeming for us that we should take for protectors others besides Thee, but Thou didst make them and their fathers to enjoy until they forgot the Reminder, and they became a lost people. So they will give you the lie in what you say, then you can neither ward off (evil), nor (obtain) help. And whoever among you does wrong, We shall make him taste a great chastisement."

"And those who look not for meeting with Us, say: Why have not angels been sent down to us, or (why) do we not see our Lord? Indeed they are too proud of themselves and revolt in great revolt. On the day when they will see the angels, there will be no good news for the guilty, and they will say: Let there be a strong barrier! And We shall turn to the work they have done, so We shall render it as scattered motes. The owners of the Garden will on that day be in a better abiding-place and a fairer resting-place. And on the day when the heaven bursts asunder with clouds, and the angels are sent down, as they are sent. The kingdom on that day rightly belongs to the Beneficent, and it will be a hard day for the disbelievers. And on the day when the wrongdoer will bite his hands, saying: Would that I had taken a way with the Messenger! O woe is me! would that I had not taken such a one for a friend! Certainly he led me astray from the Reminder after it had come to me. And the devil ever deserts man."

"And the day when He will call them and say: Where are those whom you deemed to be My associates? Those against whom the word has proved true will say: Our Lord, these are they whom we caused to deviate -- we caused them to deviate as we ourselves deviated. We declare our innocence before Thee. Us they never worshipped. And it will be said: Call your associate-gods. So they will call upon them, but they will not answer them, and they will see the chastisement. Would that they had followed the right way And the day He will call them, then say: What was the answer you gave to the messengers? On that day excuses will become obscure to them, so they will not ask each other. But as to him who repents and believes and does good, maybe he will be among the successful."

"And the day when He will call them and say: Where are My associates whom you pretended? And We shall draw forth from among every nation a witness and say: Bring your proof. Then shall they know that the Truth is Allah's and that which they forged will fail them."

"And they ask thee to hasten on the chastisement. And had not a term been appointed, the chastisement would certainly have come to them. And certainly it will come to them all of a sudden, while they perceive not. They ask thee to hasten on the chastisement, and surely hell encompasses the disbelievers -- The day when the chastisement will cover them from above them, and from beneath their feet And He will say: Taste what you did. O My servants who believe, surely My earth is vast, so serve Me only. Every soul must taste of death then to Us you will be returned. And those who believe and do good, We shall certainly give them an abode in high places in the Garden wherein flow rivers, abiding therein. Excellent the reward of the workers."

"They know the outward of this world's life, but of the Hereafter they are heedless. Do they not reflect within themselves? Allah did not create the heavens and the earth and what is between them but with truth, and (for) an appointed term. And surely most of the people are deniers of the meeting with their Lord."

"And if We had pleased, We could have given every soul its guidance, but the word from Me was just; I will certainly fill hell with the jinn and men together. So taste, because you forgot the meeting of this Day of yours surely We forsake you; and taste the abiding chastisement for what you did."

"Is he then, who is a believer, like him who is a transgressor? They are not equal. As for those who believe and do good deeds, for them are Gardens, a refuge -- an entertainment for what they did. And as for those who transgress, their refuge is the Fire. Whenever they desire to go forth from it, they are brought back into it, and it is said to them: Taste the chastisement of the Fire, which you called a lie. And certainly We will make them taste the nearer punishment before the greater chastisement, that haply they may turn. And who is more iniquitous than he who is reminded of the messages of his Lord, then he turns away from them? Surely We exact retribution from the guilty."

"Surely Allah has cursed the disbelievers and prepared for them a burning Fire, To abide therein for a long time; they will find no protector nor helper. On the day when their leaders are turned back into the Fire, they say: O would that we had obeyed Allah and obeyed the Messenger! And they say: Our Lord, we only obeyed our leaders and our great men, so they led us astray from the path. Our Lord, give them a double chastisement and curse them with a great curse."

"And those who disbelieve say: The Hour will never come to us. Say: Yea, by my Lord, the Knower of the unseen! it will certainly come to you. Not an atom's weight escapes Him in the heavens or in the earth, nor is there less than that nor greater, but (all) is in a clear book, That He may reward those who believe and do good. For them is forgiveness and an honourable sustenance. And those who strive hard in opposing Our Messages, for them is a painful chastisement of an evil kind."

"And the trumpet is blown, when lo! from their graves they will hasten on to their Lord. They will say: O woe to us Who has raised us up from our sleeping-place? This is what the Beneficent promised and the messengers told the truth. It is but a single cry, when lo! they are all brought before Us. So this day no soul is wronged in aught and you are not rewarded aught but for what you did. Surely the owners of the Garden are on that day in a happy occupation. They and their wives are in shades, reclining on raised couches. They have fruits therein, and they have whatever they desire. Peace! A word from a Merciful Lord. And withdraw today, O guilty ones! Did I not charge you, O children of Adam, that you serve not the devil? Surely he is your open enemy. And that you serve Me. This is the right way. And certainly he led astray numerous people from among you. Could you not then understand? This is the hell which you were promised. Enter it this day because you disbelieved. That day We shall seal their mouths, and their hands will speak to Us, and their feet will bear witness as to what they earned."

"Gardens of perpetuity, which they enter -- they are made to wear therein bracelets of gold and pearls, and their dress therein is silk. And they say: Praise be to Allah, Who has removed grief from us! Surely our Lord is Forgiving, Multiplier of reward, Who out of His grace has made us alight in a house abiding for ever; therein toil touches us not nor does fatigue afflict us therein. And those who disbelieve, for them is Fire of hell; it is not finished with them so that they should die, nor is chastisement thereof lightened to them. Thus We deal retribution on every ungrateful one. And therein they cry for succour: Our Lord, take us out! we will do good deeds other than those which we used to do! Did We not give you a life long enough, for him to be mindful who would mind? And there came to you the warner. So taste; because for the iniquitous there is no helper."

"And say: This is nothing but clear enchantment. When we are dead and have become dust and bones; shall we then be raised, Or our fathers of yore? Say: Yea, and you will be humiliated. So it will be but one cry, when lo! they will see. And they will say: O woe to us! This is the day of Requital. This is the day of Judgment, which you called a lie. And say: This is nothing but clear enchantment. When we are dead and have become dust and bones; shall we then be raised, Or our fathers of yore? Say: Yea, and you will be humiliated. So it will be but one cry, when lo! they will see. And they will say: O woe to us! This is the day of Requital. This is the day of Judgment, which you called a lie. Gather together those who did wrong and their associates, and what they worshipped Besides Allah, then lead them to the way to hell. And stop them, for they shall be questioned: What is the matter with you that you help not one another? Nay, on that day they will be submissive. And some of them will turn to others mutually questioning -- Saying: Surely you used to come to us from the right side. They will say: Nay, you (yourselves) were not believers. And we had no authority over you, but you were an inordinate people. So the word of our Lord has proved true against us: we shall surely taste. We led you astray, for we ourselves were erring. So, that day they will be sharers in the chastisement. Thus do We deal with the guilty."

"They indeed were arrogant, when it was said to them: There is no god but Allah; And said: Shall we give up our gods for a mad poet? Nay, he has brought the Truth and verifies the messengers. Surely you will taste the painful chastisement. And you are requited naught but for what you did -- Save the servants of Allah, the purified ones. For them is a known sustenance: Fruits. And they are honoured, In Gardens of delight, On thrones, facing each other. A bowl of running water will be made to go round them, White, delicious to those who drink. It deprives not of reason, nor are they exhausted therewith. And with them are those modest in gaze, having beautiful eyes, As if they were eggs, carefully protected. Then some of them will turn to others, questioning mutually. A speaker of them will say: Surely I had a comrade, Who said: Art thou indeed of those who accept? When we are dead and have become dust and bones, shall we then be requited? He will say: Will you look? Then he looked down and saw him in the midst of hell. He will say: By Allah! thou hadst almost caused me to perish And had it not been for favour of my Lord, I should have been among those brought up. Are we not to die, Except our previous death? And are we not to be chastised? Surely this is the mighty achievement. For the like of this, then, let the workers work. Is this the better entertainment or the tree of Zaqqum? Surely We have made it a trial for the wrongdoers. It is a tree that grows in the bottom of hell -- Its produce is as it were the heads of serpents. Then truly they will eat of it and fill (their) bellies with it. Then surely they shall have after it a drink of boiling water. Then their return is surety to the flaming Fire. They indeed found their fathers astray, So in their footsteps they are hastening on. And most of the ancients surely went astray before them,"

"If you are ungrateful, then surely Allah is above need of you. And He likes not ungratefulness in His servants. And if you are grateful, He likes it for you. And no bearer of a burden will bear another's burden. Then to your Lord is your return, then will He inform you of what you did. Surely He is Knower of what is in the breasts. And when distress afflicts a man he calls upon his Lord, turning to Him; then when He grants him a favour from Him, he forgets that for which he called upon Him before, and sets up rivals to Allah that he may cause (men) to stray from His path. Say: Enjoy thine ungratefulness for a little, surely thou art of the companions of the Fire."

"Say: I fear, if I disobey my Lord, the chastisement of a grievous day. Say: Allah I serve, being sincere to Him in my obedience. Serve then what you will beside Him. Say: The losers surely are those who lose themselves and their people on the day of Resurrection. Now surely that is the manifest loss They shall have coverings of fire above them and coverings beneath them. With that Allah makes His servants to fear; so keen your duty to Me, O My servants. And those who eschew the worship of the idols and turn to Allah, for them is good news. So give good news to My servants, Who listen to the Word, then follow the best of it. Such are they whom Allah has guided, and such are the men of understanding. He against whom the sentence of chastisement is due -- canst thou save him who is in the Fire? But those who keep their duty to their Lord, for them are high places, above them higher places, built (for them), wherein rivers flow. (It is) the promise of Allah. Allah fails not in (His) promise."

"Say: O Allah, Originator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the seen, Thou judgest between Thy servants as to that wherein they differ. And had those who do wrong all that is in the earth and the like of it with it, they would certainly offer it as ransom from the evil of the chastisement on the day of Resurrection. And what they never thought of shall become plain to them from Allah. And the evil of what they wrought will become plain to them, and that which they mocked at will beset them."

"So remind, reminding indeed profits. He who fears will mind, And the most unfortunate one will avoid it, Who will burn in the great Fire. Then therein he will neither live nor die. He indeed is successful who purifies himself, And remembers the name of his Lord, then prays. But, you prefer the life of this world, While the Hereafter is better and more lasting. Surely this is in the earlier scriptures The scriptures of Abraham and Moses."
