90. This Countryside - Al-Balad
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
| 90:1 | Nay! I swear by this city. |
| 90:2 | And you shall be made free from obligation in this city -- |
| 90:3 | And the begetter and whom he begot. |
| 90:4 | Certainly We have created man to be in distress. |
| 90:5 | Does he think that no one has power over him? |
| 90:6 | He shall say: I have wasted much wealth. |
| 90:7 | Does he think that no one sees him? |
| 90:8 | Have We not given him two eyes, |
| 90:9 | And a tongue and two lips, |
| 90:10 | And pointed out to him the two conspicuous ways? |
| 90:11 | But he would not attempt the uphill road, |
| 90:12 | And what will make you comprehend what the uphill road is? |
| 90:13 | (It is) the setting free of a slave, |
| 90:14 | Or the giving of food in a day of hunger |
| 90:15 | To an orphan, having relationship, |
| 90:16 | Or to the poor man lying in the dust. |
| 90:17 | Then he is of those who believe and charge one another to show patience, and charge one another to show compassion. |
| 90:18 | These are the people of the right hand. |
| 90:19 | And (as for) those who disbelieve in our communications, they are the people of the left hand. |
| 90:20 | On them is fire closed over. |
