90 : 1

Yusuf Ali
I do call to witness this City;-

90 : 2

Yusuf Ali
And thou art a freeman of this City;-

90 : 3

Yusuf Ali
And (the mystic ties of) parent and child;-

90 : 4

Yusuf Ali
Verily We have created man into toil and struggle.

90 : 5

Yusuf Ali
Thinketh he, that none hath power over him?

90 : 6

Yusuf Ali
He may say (boastfully); Wealth have I squandered in abundance!

90 : 7

Yusuf Ali
Thinketh he that none beholdeth him?

90 : 8

Yusuf Ali
Have We not made for him a pair of eyes?-

90 : 9

Yusuf Ali
And a tongue, and a pair of lips?-

90 : 10

Yusuf Ali
And shown him the two highways?

90 : 11

Yusuf Ali
But he hath made no haste on the path that is steep.

90 : 12

Yusuf Ali
And what will explain to thee the path that is steep?-

90 : 13

Yusuf Ali
(It is:) freeing the bondman;

90 : 14

Yusuf Ali
Or the giving of food in a day of privation

90 : 15

Yusuf Ali
To the orphan with claims of relationship,

90 : 16

Yusuf Ali
Or to the indigent (down) in the dust.

90 : 17

Yusuf Ali
Then will he be of those who believe, and enjoin patience, (constancy, and self-restraint), and enjoin deeds of kindness and compassion.

90 : 18

Yusuf Ali
Such are the Companions of the Right Hand.

90 : 19

Yusuf Ali
But those who reject Our Signs, they are the (unhappy) Companions of the Left Hand.

90 : 20

Yusuf Ali
On them will be Fire vaulted over (all round).
