وَيُطْعِمُونَ ٱلطَّعَامَ عَلَىٰ حُبِّهِۦ مِسْكِينًۭا وَيَتِيمًۭا وَأَسِيرًا ٨
إِنَّمَا نُطْعِمُكُمْ لِوَجْهِ ٱللَّهِ لَا نُرِيدُ مِنكُمْ جَزَآءًۭ وَلَا شُكُورًا ٩
إِنَّا نَخَافُ مِن رَّبِّنَا يَوْمًا عَبُوسًۭا قَمْطَرِيرًۭا ١٠
فَوَقَىٰهُمُ ٱللَّهُ شَرَّ ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ وَلَقَّىٰهُمْ نَضْرَةًۭ وَسُرُورًۭا ١١
وَجَزَىٰهُم بِمَا صَبَرُوا۟ جَنَّةًۭ وَحَرِيرًۭا ١٢
مُّتَّكِـِٔينَ فِيهَا عَلَى ٱلْأَرَآئِكِ ۖ لَا يَرَوْنَ فِيهَا شَمْسًۭا وَلَا زَمْهَرِيرًۭا ١٣
وَدَانِيَةً عَلَيْهِمْ ظِلَـٰلُهَا وَذُلِّلَتْ قُطُوفُهَا تَذْلِيلًۭا ١٤
وَيُطَافُ عَلَيْهِم بِـَٔانِيَةٍۢ مِّن فِضَّةٍۢ وَأَكْوَابٍۢ كَانَتْ قَوَارِيرَا۠ ١٥
قَوَارِيرَا۟ مِن فِضَّةٍۢ قَدَّرُوهَا تَقْدِيرًۭا ١٦
وَيُسْقَوْنَ فِيهَا كَأْسًۭا كَانَ مِزَاجُهَا زَنجَبِيلًا ١٧
عَيْنًۭا فِيهَا تُسَمَّىٰ سَلْسَبِيلًۭا ١٨
۞ وَيَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ وِلْدَٰنٌۭ مُّخَلَّدُونَ إِذَا رَأَيْتَهُمْ حَسِبْتَهُمْ لُؤْلُؤًۭا مَّنثُورًۭا ١٩
وَإِذَا رَأَيْتَ ثَمَّ رَأَيْتَ نَعِيمًۭا وَمُلْكًۭا كَبِيرًا ٢٠
عَـٰلِيَهُمْ ثِيَابُ سُندُسٍ خُضْرٌۭ وَإِسْتَبْرَقٌۭ ۖ وَحُلُّوٓا۟ أَسَاوِرَ مِن فِضَّةٍۢ وَسَقَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ شَرَابًۭا طَهُورًا ٢١
إِنَّ هَـٰذَا كَانَ لَكُمْ جَزَآءًۭ وَكَانَ سَعْيُكُم مَّشْكُورًا ٢٢
AYAH 23=31 of Surah Al Insan
إِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا عَلَيْكَ ٱلْقُرْءَانَ تَنزِيلًۭا ٢٣
فَٱصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ وَلَا تُطِعْ مِنْهُمْ ءَاثِمًا أَوْ كَفُورًۭا ٢٤
وَٱذْكُرِ ٱسْمَ رَبِّكَ بُكْرَةًۭ وَأَصِيلًۭا ٢٥
وَمِنَ ٱلَّيْلِ فَٱسْجُدْ لَهُۥ وَسَبِّحْهُ لَيْلًۭا طَوِيلًا ٢٦
إِنَّ هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ يُحِبُّونَ ٱلْعَاجِلَةَ وَيَذَرُونَ وَرَآءَهُمْ يَوْمًۭا ثَقِيلًۭا ٢٧
نَّحْنُ خَلَقْنَـٰهُمْ وَشَدَدْنَآ أَسْرَهُمْ ۖ وَإِذَا شِئْنَا بَدَّلْنَآ أَمْثَـٰلَهُمْ تَبْدِيلًا ٢٨
إِنَّ هَـٰذِهِۦ تَذْكِرَةٌۭ ۖ فَمَن شَآءَ ٱتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ سَبِيلًۭا ٢٩
وَمَا تَشَآءُونَ إِلَّآ أَن يَشَآءَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ عَلِيمًا حَكِيمًۭا ٣٠
يُدْخِلُ مَن يَشَآءُ فِى رَحْمَتِهِۦ ۚ وَٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ أَعَدَّ لَهُمْ عَذَابًا أَلِيمًۢا ٣١
English translation of Surah al Insan, taken from Mufti Taqi Usmani’s book
The english translation of Surah Al Insan is as follows.
AYAH 1-8
AYAH 9-18
9. (saying to them,) “We feed you only
for the sake of Allah; we have no
intention of (receiving) either a return
from you or thanks.10. In fact, we are fearful of a day,
from the side of our Lord, that will be
frowning, extremely malignant.”
11. So Allah will save them from the
evil of that Day, and will grant them
bloom and delight,
12. and will give them, in return for
their patience, Paradise and (garments
of) silk,
13. wherein they will be reclining on
couches, feeling neither heat of the sun
nor intense cold.
14. And shades of gardens will be
hanging low on them, and their fruits
will be placed totally under their
command.
15. Circulated among them will be
vessels of silver, and cups that will be
(as transparent as) crystals,16. -crystals (as shining as if made) of
silver, measured by those (who filled
them) with due measure.
17. And they will be served with
goblet of a drink blended with ginger,
18. (acquired from) a spring therein
called Salsabil.AYAH 19-22
19. And circling around them will be
serving boys, blessed with eternal
youth; when you would see them, you
would take them as scattered pearls.
20. When you will look around there,
you will
see the Bliss and a
magnificent realm.21. Upon them will be garments of
green sundus (a kind of fine silk), and
of istabraq (a kind of thick silk), and
they will be adorned by bracelets of
silver. Their Lord will give them a
pure beverage to drink:
22. This is a reward for you, and your
effort has been appreciated.”AYAH 23-31
23. Indeed we have revealed to you the
Qur’an through a gradual process.
24. So, be steadfast patiently in
(obeying) your Lord’s command, and
do not obey any one of them who is
sinner or ungrateful.
25. And pronounce the name of Allah
morning and evening.
26. And in some parts of night
prostrate yourself before Him, and
pronounce His purity for long times at
I night.
27. In fact these people love that
which is immediate, and neglect a
Heavy Day ahead of them.28. We have created them and have
made their joints
strong.
And
whenever We will, We would replace
them with others like them, a total
replacement.
29. Indeed, this is a reminder; so let
anyone who so wishes, adopt a way to
his Lord.
30. And you will not so wish unless.
Allah so wills. Indeed Allah is All-
Knowing, All-Wise.
31. He admits whomsoever He wills to
His mercy. As for the wrongdoers, He
has prepared for them a painful
punishment.
