بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ لَا أُقْسِمُ بِهَٰذَا الْبَلَدِ
I do call to witness this City;-
90:2
وَأَنْتَ حِلٌّ بِهَٰذَا الْبَلَدِ
And thou art a freeman of this City;-
90:3
وَوَالِدٍ وَمَا وَلَدَ

90:14
أَوْ إِطْعَامٌ فِي يَوْمٍ ذِي مَسْغَبَةٍ
Or the giving of food in a day of privation
90:15
يَتِيمًا ذَا مَقْرَبَةٍ
To the orphan with claims of relationship,

ثُمَّ كَانَ مِنَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالصَّبْرِ وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالْمَرْحَمَةِ
Then will he be of those who believe, and enjoin patience, (constancy, and self-restraint), and enjoin deeds of kindness and compassion.
