بِسمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحمـٰنِ الرَّحيمِ الم

Alif. Lam. Meem.

أَحَسِبَ النّاسُ أَن يُترَكوا أَن يَقولوا آمَنّا وَهُم لا يُفتَنونَ

Do people think they will be left alone, just stating, “We believe,” without being tested?

وَلَقَد فَتَنَّا الَّذينَ مِن قَبلِهِم ۖ فَلَيَعلَمَنَّ اللَّهُ الَّذينَ صَدَقوا وَلَيَعلَمَنَّ الكاذِبينَ

We tested those before them. And God will certainly know those who are true from those who are false.

مَن كانَ يَرجو لِقاءَ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّ أَجَلَ اللَّهِ لَآتٍ ۚ وَهُوَ السَّميعُ العَليمُ

Whoever hopes to meet God, the appointed time of God is surely coming. He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.

وَمَن جاهَدَ فَإِنَّما يُجاهِدُ لِنَفسِهِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَغَنِيٌّ عَنِ العالَمينَ

Whoever strives, strives for his own soul. God is free of all needs from all creation.

وَالَّذينَ آمَنوا وَعَمِلُوا الصّالِحاتِ لَنُكَفِّرَنَّ عَنهُم سَيِّئَاتِهِم وَلَنَجزِيَنَّهُم أَحسَنَ الَّذي كانوا يَعمَلونَ

As for those who believe and lead righteous lives, We will erase their sins and reward them according to the best of their actions.

وَوَصَّينَا الإِنسانَ بِوالِدَيهِ حُسنًا ۖ وَإِن جاهَداكَ لِتُشرِكَ بي ما لَيسَ لَكَ بِهِ عِلمٌ فَلا تُطِعهُما ۚ إِلَيَّ مَرجِعُكُم فَأُنَبِّئُكُم بِما كُنتُم تَعمَلونَ

We’ve instructed man to honor his parents. However, if they pressure you to associate something with Me, about which you have no knowledge, don’t obey them. To Me is your return, and I will inform you of everything you did.

وَالَّذينَ آمَنوا وَعَمِلُوا الصّالِحاتِ لَنُدخِلَنَّهُم فِي الصّالِحينَ

Those who believe and do righteous deeds will be among the righteous.
