Except what God pleaseth; verily He knoweth the plain and the hidden.

And we will speed thee to ease.

Admonish, therefore,—verily admonishing profiteth,—

Whoso feareth God will mind;

And there will turn away from it only the wretch

Who shall broil upon the mighty fire;

And then shall neither die therein, nor live.

Happy is he who purifieth himself,

And remembereth the name of his Lord, and prayeth.

But ye prefer the life of this world,
