الْإِنسَانُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَى رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَاقِيهِ |

مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ بِيَمِينِهِ |
|

So regarding the person whose Record of deeds
is given in his (or her) right hand, |
فَسَوْفَ
يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا |

He really had thought that he would never
return (to his Lord). |
بَلَى إِنَّ
رَبَّهُ كَانَ بِهِ بَصِيرًا |

Yes indeed, his Lord was of course Watchful

فَمَا لَهُمْ
لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ |
|
20- |
So what is the matter with those who (do not
get this fact and) do not believe? |
وَإِذَا
قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقُرْآنُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ |
|
21- |
And when the Quran (with all its facts and
guidance) is read to them,
they don’t fall to humble themselves in prostration (to God, the
Creator)? |
بَلِ
الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ يُكَذِّبُونَ |
|
22- |
On the contrary, those who deny the truth,
call it (the Quran) as a lie. |
وَاللَّهُ
أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ |
|
23- |
And God knows what they hide in their hearts. |
فَبَشِّرْهُم
بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ |
|
24- |
So warn them of a coming painful suffering. |
إِلَّا
الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ
مَمْنُونٍ |
|
25- |
Except those who have believed and have done
righteous good deeds,
for whom there will be a reward without any end. |
