23 And hell is made to appear that day. On that day man will be mindful, and of what use will being mindful be then?

24 He will say: O would that I had sent before for (this) my life!

25 But none can punish as He will punish on that day.

26 And none can bind as He will bind on that day.

27 O soul that art at rest,

28 Return to thy Lord, well-pleased, well-pleasing,

29 So enter among My servants,

30 And enter My Garden!

Chapter 90 Al-Balad: The City

1 Nay, I call to witness this City!

2 And thou wilt be made free from obligation in this City —

3 And the begetter and he whom he begot!

4 We have certainly created man to face difficulties.

5 Does he think that no one has power over him?

6 He will 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 attempts not the uphill road;

12 And what will make thee comprehend what the uphill road is?

13 (It is) to free a slave,

14 Or to feed in a day of hunger

15 An orphan nearly related,

16 Or the poor man lying in the dust.
