The Qur’an For All Humanity
O Man!
~ 83 ~
O MAN!
When the sky is rent asunder, obeying its Lord in
true submission; when the earth is expanded and
casts out all that is within it and becomes empty,
obeying its Lord in true submission; then, O man,
strive hard towards your Lord until you meet
Him.
He that is given his book in his right hand shall
have a lenient reckoning and go back rejoicing to
his people. But he that is given his book from
behind his back shall call down destruction on
himself and burn in the fire of Hell; for he lived
without a care among his people and thought he
would never return to God. Yes; but his Lord was
ever watching over him.
I swear by the glow of sunset; by the night and all
that it brings together; by the moon, in its full
perfection: that you shall march onwards from
state to state.
Why then do they not have faith, or kneel in prayer
when the Qur’an is read to them?
