translation chapter 90 of the Holy Quran Al-Balad or The City In the name of God, most gracious most merciful, 1. I do call to witness this city 2. And thou art a freeman of this city 3.And(the mystic ties of)Parent & Child 4.verily We have created man into toil and struggle. 5. Thinketh he, that none Hath power over him? 6. He may say (boastfully) wealth have I squandered in abundance! 7.Thinketh he that none behold him? 8.Have We not made for him a pair of eyes? 9. and a tongue and a pair of lips? 10. and showed him the two ways? 11. But he has made no haste on the path that is steep. 12. and what will explain to thee the path that is steep? 13.(It is:) to free a slave 14. or the giving of food in the day of privation 15. To the orphan near of kin, 16. or to the indigent (Down) in the misery. 17. Then will he be of those who believe,and enjoin patience, (constancy, and self restraint)and enjoying good deeds of kindness and compassion. 18. such are the companions Of the Right Hand. 19. but those who reject our signs they are the ( unhappy)companions Of the Left Hand. 20. On them will be Fire Vaulted over (all around)them.
