Essential Koran
The Harmony of the Soul [91:1-10]
In the Name of God, the Merciful,
the Compassionate
By the sun and his morning brightness and by the moon when she follows him, and
by the day when it displays him and by the night when it enshrouds him! By the
heaven and That which built it and by the earth and That which extended it! By
the soul, and That which shaped it and inspired it to lewdness and godfearing!
Prosperous is he who purifies it, and failed has he who seduces it.
The Treasure of Love [92:14-21]
Now I have warned you of a Fire that
flames, whereat none but the most wretched shall be roasted, even he who cried
lies, and turned away; and from which the most godfearing shall be removed, even
he who gives his wealth to purify himself and confers no favor on any man for
recompense, only seeking the Face of his Lord the Most High; and he shall surely
be satisfied.
Authentic Witness [93:6-11]
Did He not find thee an orphan, and
shelter thee? Did He not find thee erring, and guide thee? Did He not find you
needy, and suffice thee? As for the orphan, do not oppress him, and as for the
beggar, scold him not; and as for thy Lord's blessing, declare it.
Hardship and Ease [94:1-8]
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the
Compassionate
Did We not expand thy breast for thee and lift from thee thy burden, the burden
that weighed down thy back? Did We not exalt thy fame? So truly with hardship
comes ease, truly with hardship comes ease. So when thou are empty, labor, and
let thy Lord be thy Quest.
Humanity [95:1-8]
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the
Compassionate
By the fig and the olive and the Mount Sinai and this land secure! We indeed
created Man in the fairest stature then We restored him the lowest of the low --
save those who believe, and do righteous deeds; they shall have a wage
unfailing. What then shall cry thee lies as to the Doom? Is not God the justest
of judges?
The Inception of the Arabic Koran [96:1-5]
In the Name of God, the
Merciful, the Compassionate
Recite: In the Name of thy Lord who created, created Man of a blood-clot.
Recite: And thy Lord is the Most Generous who taught by the Pen, taught Man that
he knew not. |
