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