it is upon you to haveTaqwa of Allahwhen you areforgetful

sustenance will cometo you from whereyou don't know

How do you fear

Povertywhen Allah isthe Provider

Indeed He providedfor the birdsand the whalesof the sea

And whoever thoughtthat sustenancecomes withpower

when the birdate something with

the eagles

this worldgoes by youand you don't know

if the nightcovers will youlive until Fajr

How manyhealthy died

withouta reason

and how manyweak live

forever?

How many youthgo to sleepand wakeup laughing

and we buried him

at sunsetand he didn'teven know

so whoever livesa thousandthen a thousandyears after that

no doubt there willcome a daywhen you will goto the grave!
