IslamAwakened.com Qur'an Tafsir of Surah al-Balad - The City, This Countryside as rendered by
Mohammad Shafi
90:1
No! I do swear by this City
90:2
— And you are a free citizen of this City &mdash
90:3
And by father and that which he begets
90:4
We have certainly created man for hard work
90:5
Does he think that no one has any control over him
90:6
He claims, "I have squandered much wealth."
90:7
Does he think no one is keeping a watch on him
90:8
Have We not made two eyes for him
90:9
And a tongue and two lips
90:10
And shown him the two ways [right and wrong]
90:11
But he ventures not up the steep road
90:12
And what do you understand what the steep road is
90:13
Freeing a slave
90:14
Or feeding on a day of extreme hunger
90:15
An orphan closely related
90:16
Or miserable poor man
90:17
Then he becomes of those who believe and exhort one another to patience, and exhort one another to mercy
90:18
These are the people of the right hand
90:19
And those who suppress the Truth in Our Verses, those are the people of the left hand
90:20
On them is Fire closing in
