Has there come upon man a period of time when he was nothing to be mentioned?
We created man from a liquid mixture, to test him; and We made him hearing and seeing.
We guided him to the way, be he appreciative or unappreciative.
We have prepared for the faithless chains, and yokes, and a Searing Fire.
But the righteous will drink from a cup whose mixture is aroma.
A spring from which the servants of Allah will drink, making it gush abundantly.
They fulfill their vows, and dread a Day whose ill is widespread.
And they feed, for the love of Him, the poor, and the orphan, and the captive.
"We only feed you for the sake of Allah. We want from you neither compensation, nor gratitude.
We dread from our Lord a frowning grim Day."
