76.1 . Hath there come Upon man ( ever ) any period of time in which he was a thing unremembered?
76.2 . Lo! We create man from a drop of thickened fluid to test him ; so We make him hearing , knowing .
76.3 . Lo! We have shown him the way , whether he be grateful or disbelieving .
76.4 . Lo! We have prepared for disbelievers manacles and carcans and a raging fire .
76.5 . Lo! the righteous shall drink of a cup whereof the mixture is of water of Kafur ,
76.6 . A spring wherefrom the slaves of Allah drink , making it gush forth abundantly ,
76.7 . Because they perform the vow and fear a day whereof the evil is wide spreading ,
76.8 . And feed with food the needy wretch , the orphan and the prisoner , for love of Him ,
76.9 . ( Saying ) : We feed you , for the sake of Allah only . We wish for no reward nor thanks from you ;
76.10 . Lo! we fear from our Lord a day of frowning and of fate .
76.11 . Therefor Allah hath warded from them the evil of that day , and hath made them find brightness and joy ;
76.12 . And hath awarded them for all that they endured , a Garden and silk attire ;
76.13 . Reclining therein upon couches , they will find there neither ( heat of ) a sun nor bitter cold .
76.14 . The shade thereof is close upon them and the clustered fruits thereof bow down .
76.15 . Goblets of silver are brought round for them , and beakers ( as ) of glass
76.16 . ( Bright as ) glass but ( made ) of silver , which they ( themselves ) have measured to the measure ( of their deeds ) .
76.17 . There are they watered with a cup whereof the mixture is of Zanjabil ,
76.18 . The water of a spring therein , named Salsabil .
76.19 . There serve them youths of everlasting youth , whom , when thou seest , thou wouldst take for scattered pearls .
76.20 . When thou seest , thou wilt see there bliss and high estate .
