95al-TīnThe Figسُورَةُ التين

Makkan · 8 ayat · 28th in order of revelation

بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

وَٱلتِّينِ وَٱلزَّيۡتُونِ 

By the fig and the olive,

وَطُورِ سِينِينَ 

And Mount Sinai,

وَهَٰذَا ٱلۡبَلَدِ ٱلۡأَمِينِ 

And this impregnable land [Makkah]!

لَقَدۡ خَلَقۡنَا ٱلۡإِنسَٰنَ فِيٓ أَحۡسَنِ تَقۡوِيمٖ 

Truly, We created the social being in the best adjustment,

ثُمَّ رَدَدۡنَٰهُ أَسۡفَلَ سَٰفِلِينَ 

And thereafter We demote him to the lowest of postures [or status] —

إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ فَلَهُمۡ أَجۡرٌ غَيۡرُ مَمۡنُونٖ 

Except for those who commit themselves [to Allah] and do what is right: for theirs is a reward without derogation!

فَمَا يُكَذِّبُكَ بَعۡدُ بِٱلدِّينِ 

What is it, then, that causes you to [try to] prove this dīn to be false?

أَلَيۡسَ ٱللَّهُ بِأَحۡكَمِ ٱلۡحَٰكِمِينَ 

Is not Allah the most just of judges?
