It was He that made the sun a brightness and the moon a light, and determined it in phases so that you might know the number of years and the reckoning. Allah did not create them except in truth, and distinguishes the verses to a nation who know. (5)

In the alternation of the night and day, and in all that Allah has created in the heavens and the earth, surely there are signs for people who are cautious. (6)

Those who do not expect to meet Us, and are wellpleased with this life and are satisfied with it, and those who are inattentive to Our signs, (7)

for them, their refuge is the Fire for what they have been earning. (8)

Indeed, those who believe and do righteous works, their Lord will guide them for their belief, beneath them rivers will flow in gardens of bliss. (9)

(In it) their supplication will be: 'Exaltations to You, Allah! ' And their greeting will be: 'Peace! ' They will end their supplication with 'Praise be to Allah, Lord of the all the Worlds! ' (10)

If Allah should hasten evil to people as they would hasten good, their term would already have been decided. But We leave those who do not expect to meet Us to wander blindly in their insolence. (11)

When affliction befalls a man, he supplicates to Us (lying) on his side, sitting or standing. But as soon as We relieve him from his affliction, he continues (in the same way), as though he never supplicated to Us when harm touched him. So it is, that which the sinners were doing seem fairly decorated to them. (12)

We destroyed generations before you when they did evil. (When) their Messengers came to them with clear verses they would not believe; so We recompense the sinning nation. (13)

After them We made you their successors in the earth, so that We might see how you would do. (14)
