— 31 verses

Has (there) come upon man a period of time not he was a thing mentioned?
Indeed, We [We] created man from a semen-drop, a mixture, (that) We test him; so We made (for) him hearing and sight.
Indeed, We guided him (to) the way whether (he) be grateful and whether (he) be ungrateful.
Indeed, We [We] have prepared for the disbelievers chains and shackles and a Blazing Fire.
Indeed, the righteous will drink from a cup, is its mixture (of) Kafur,
A spring - will drink from it (the) slaves (of) Allah; causing it to gush forth abundantly.
They fulfill the vows and fear a Day - (which) is its evil widespread.
And they feed the food in spite of love (for) it, (to the) needy, and (the) orphan and (the) captive,
"Only we feed you for (the) Countenance (of) Allah. Not we desire from you any reward and not thanks.
Indeed, we fear from our Lord a Day - harsh and distressful."
But will protect them Allah (from the) evil (of) that Day and will cause them to meet radiance and happiness.
And will reward them because they were patient, (with) a Garden and silk.
Reclining therein on couches. Not they will see therein sun and not freezing cold.
And near above them (are) its shades and will hang low its cluster of fruits dangling low.
And will be circulated among them vessels of silver and cups (that) are (of) crystal.
Crystal-clear of silver. They will determine its measure.
And they will be given to drink therein a cup - is its mixture (of) Zanjabil,
A spring therein, named Salsabil.
And will circulate among them young boys made eternal. When you see them, you would think them (to be) pearls scattered.
And when you look, then you will see blessings and a kingdom great.
Upon them (will be) garments (of) fine silk green and heavy brocade. And they will be adorned (with) bracelets of silver, and will give them to drink their Lord, a drink pure.
"Indeed, this is for you a reward, and has been your effort appreciated."
Indeed, We [We] [We] revealed to you the Quran progressively.
So be patient for (the) Command (of) your Lord and (do) not obey from them any sinner or disbeliever.
And remember (the) name (of) your Lord morning and evening.
And of the night prostrate to Him, and glorify Him a night long.
Indeed, these love the immediate, and leave behind them a Day grave.
We, created them and We strengthened their forms, and when We will, We can change their likeness[es] (with) a change.
Indeed, this (is) a reminder, so whoever wills, let him take to his Lord a way.
And not you will except that wills Allah. Indeed, Allah is All-Knower, All-Wise.
He admits whom He wills into His mercy, but (for) the wrongdoers, He has prepared for them a punishment painful.
