The Meanings of the Holy Qur'an: Sura 104, "The Traducer, The Gossipmonger"
|
|
{2}
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
|
{3}
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
|
{4}
By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,
|
{5}
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
|
{6}
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) God kindled (to a blaze),
|
{7}
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
|
{8}
It shall be made into a vault over them,
|
{9}
In columns outstretched.
|
|
The Meanings of the Holy Qur'an: Sura 105, "The Elephant"
|
|
{1}
Seest thou not how thy Lord dealt with the Companions of the Elephant?
|
{2}
Did He not make their treacherous plan go astray?
|
{3}
And He sent against them Flights of Birds,
|
{4}
Striking them with stones of baked clay.
|
{5}
Then did He make them like an empty field of stalks and straw, (of which the corn) has been eaten up.
|
|
The Meanings of the Holy Qur'an: Sura 106, "Winter, Quraysh"
|
|
{1}
For the covenants (of security and safeguard enjoyed) by the Quraish,
|
{2}
Their covenants (covering) journeys by winter and summer,-
|
{3}
Let them adore the Lord of this House,
|
{4}
Who provides them with food against hunger, and with security against fear (of danger). SMALL KINDNESSES, ALMSGIVING, HAVE YOU SEEN?, CHAPTER NO.
|
{1}
Seest thou one who denies the Judgment (to come)?
|
{2}
Then such is the (man) who repulses the orphan (with harshness),
|
{3}
And encourages not the feeding of the indigent.
|
{4}
So woe to the worshippers
|
