وَإِنَّهُم عِندَنا لَمِنَ المُصطَفَينَ الأَخيارِ

They are among Our chosen ones, the outstanding.

وَاذكُر إِسماعيلَ وَاليَسَعَ وَذَا الكِفلِ ۖ وَكُلٌّ مِنَ الأَخيارِ

Also remember Ishmael, Elisha, and Ezekiel. Each of them was among the excellent.

هـٰذا ذِكرٌ ۚ وَإِنَّ لِلمُتَّقينَ لَحُسنَ مَآبٍ

This is a reminder. For the virtuous, there is a beautiful place of return.

جَنّاتِ عَدنٍ مُفَتَّحَةً لَهُمُ الأَبوابُ

Gardens of Eternity, the gates of which will be open to them.

مُتَّكِئينَ فيها يَدعونَ فيها بِفاكِهَةٍ كَثيرَةٍ وَشَرابٍ

Reclining therein, they will call for ample fruit and drink.

هـٰذا ما توعَدونَ لِيَومِ الحِسابِ

This is what you are promised for the Day of Reckoning.

إِنَّ هـٰذا لَرِزقُنا ما لَهُ مِن نَفادٍ

This is Our provision, which has no end.

هـٰذا ۚ وَإِنَّ لِلطّاغينَ لَشَرَّ مَآبٍ

But for the transgressors, there will be a dreadful place of return.

جَهَنَّمَ يَصلَونَها فَبِئسَ المِهادُ

Hell—where they will burn, a horrific resting place.

هـٰذا فَليَذوقوهُ حَميمٌ وَغَسّاقٌ

Let them taste it—boiling water and bitter cold.
