55 - The Beneficient

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

 
1The Most Gracious!
 
2It is He Who has taught the Quran.
 
3He has created man:
 
4He has taught him an intelligent speech.
 
5The sun and the moon follow courses (exactly) computed;
 
6And the herbs and the trees - both (alike) bow in adoration.
 
7And the Firmament has He raised high, and He has set up the Balance (of Justice),
 
8In order that ye may not transgress (due) balance.
 
9So establish weight with justice and fall not short in the balance.
 
10It is He Who has spread out the earth for (His) creatures:
 
11Therein is fruit and date-palms, producing spathes (enclosing dates);
 
12Also corn, with (its) leaves and stalk for fodder, and sweet-smelling plants.
 
13Then which of the favors of your Lord will ye deny?
 
14He created man from sounding clay like unto pottery,
 
15And He created Jinns from fire free of smoke:

47Then which of the favors of your Lord will ye deny?-
 
48Abounding in branches;-
