| 7. Those who hope not for the meeting with Us and are pleased and satisfied with the life of this world and those who are heedless of Our Signs - 8. It is these whose abode is Fire, because of what they earned. 9. As for those who believe and do good works - their Lord shall guide them along the path of success because of their faith. Streams shall flow beneath them in the Gardens of bliss. 10. Their prayer therein shall be, `Glory be to Thee, O ALLAH ! and their greeting therein to each other shall be, `Peace ! And the end of their prayer shall be, `All praise be to ALLAH, the Lord of all the worlds.' 11. And if ALLAH were to hasten for men the ill consequences of their actions as they would seek to hasten on good, the end of their term of life would have been already brought upon them. But We leave those who look not for the meeting with Us to wonder distractedly in their transgression. 12. And when trouble befalls a man, he calls on Us, lying on his side, or sitting or standing, but when We have removed his trouble from him, he goes his way as though he had never called on Us for the removal of the trouble that befell him. Thus it is that the doings of the extravagant are made to seem fair in their eyes. 13. And We destroyed many generations before you when they did wrong; and there came to them Messengers with clear Signs, but they would not believe. Thus do We requite the guilty people. 14. Then, We made you their successors in the earth after them that We might see how you would act. |
