And not far from thence shall Paradise be brought near unto the Pious:
- "This is what ye have been promised: to every one who hath turned in penitence to God and kept his laws;
Who hath feared the God of Mercy in secret, and come to him with a contrite heart:
Enter it in peace: this is the day of Eternity."
There shall they have all that they can desire: and our's will it be to augment their bliss:
And how many generations have we destroyed ere the days of these (Meccans), mightier than they in strength! Search ye then the land. Is there any escape?
Lo! herein is warning for him who hath a heart, or giveth ear, and is himself an eye-witness.8
We created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them in six days, and no weariness touched us.9
Wherefore put up with what they say, and celebrate the praise of thy Lord before sunrise and before sunset:
And praise Him in the night: and perform the two final prostrations.
