[How] prosperous are the believers
Translation 1260
Those who pray humbly
Translation 1260
who shun idle talk
Translation 1260
who pay the prescribed alms
Translation 1260
who guard their chastity
Translation 1260
except with their spouses or their slaves––with these they are not to blame
Translation 1260
but anyone who seeks more than this is exceeding the limits––
Translation 1260
who are faithful to their trusts and pledges
Translation 1260
and who keep up their prayers
Translation 1260
will rightly be given
Translation 1260
Paradise as their own, there to remain
Translation 1260
We created man from an essence of clay
Translation 1260
then We placed him as a drop of fluid in a safe place
Translation 1260
then We made that drop into a clinging form, and We made that form into a lump of flesh, and We made that lump into bones, and We clothed those bones with flesh, and later We made him into other forms––glory be to God, the best of creators!––
Translation 1260
then you will die
Translation 1260
and then, on the Day of Resurrection, you will be raised up again
Translation 1260
We created seven levels above you: We are never unmindful of Our creation
Translation 1260
We sent water down from the sky in due measure and lodged it in the earth––We have the power to take it all away if We so wish––
Translation 1260
with it We produced for you gardens of date palms and vines, with many fruits there for you to eat
Translation 1260
and a tree, growing out of Mount Sinai, that produces oil and seasoning for your food
Translation 1260
There is a lesson for you in livestock: We produce milk for you to drink from their bellies. And they have many other benefits: you eat them
Translation 1260
and you ride on them, as you do in ships
Translation 1260
We sent Noah to his people. He said, ‘My people, serve God, for He is your only god. Will you not heed Him?’
Translation 1260
But the leading disbelievers among his people said, ‘He is merely a mortal like you, trying to gain some superiority over you. God would have sent down angels if He had wished; besides, we never heard of anything like this from our forefathers
Translation 1260
He is just a madman, so let’s wait and see what happens to him.’
