the holy qur'an chapter 90

THE HOLY QUR'AN

"The City"

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

"90.1": Nay! I swear by this city.

"90.2": And you shall be made free from obligation in this city --

"90.3": And the begetter and whom he begot.

"90.4": Certainly We have created man to be in distress.

"90.5": Does he think that no one has power over him?

"90.6": He shall say: I have wasted much wealth.

"90.7": Does he think that no one sees him?

"90.8": Have We not given him two eyes,

"90.9": And a tongue and two lips,

"90.10": And pointed out to him the two conspicuous ways?

"90.11": But he would not attempt the uphill road,

"90.12": And what will make you comprehend what the uphill road is?

"90.13": (It is) the setting free of a slave,

"90.14": Or the giving of food in a day of hunger

"90.15": To an orphan, having relationship,

"90.16": Or to the poor man lying in the dust.

"90.17": Then he is of those who believe and charge one another to show patience, and charge one another to show compassion.

"90.18": These are the people of the right hand.

"90.19": And (as for) those who disbelieve in our communications, they are the people of the left hand.

"90.20": On them is fire closed over.
