qxp
 
1.  *     Witness is the Night as it cloaks in darkness.
 
2.  *     And the Day as it shines with splendor.
 
3.  *     Witness is creation of the male and the female.
 
4.  *     Behold, your effort is diverse. (Your occupations and earnings are different. Let not this be a cause for division among you).
 
5.  *     And so, he who gives and walks aright - (92:18-19)
 
6.  *     And makes his life a manifest image of benevolence -
 
7.  *     We will indeed ease his way to the Ultimate Ease.
 
8.  *     But he who withholds and thinks himself self-sufficient becoming careless of others -
 
9.  *     And makes his life a manifest image of denial of goodness -
 
10.  *     We will indeed ease his way to hardship.
 
11.  *     And what could his wealth avail when he himself falls! (69:28), (111:2).
 
12.  *     Behold, it is for Us to show you the Way (through this Revelation).
 
13.  *     And behold, unto Us belong the End and the Beginning. (93:4).
 
14.  *     And so I warn you of a raging Fire.
 
15.  *     Which only the most unfortunate must endure.
 
16.  *     He who denies and turns away.
 
17.  *     But far removed from it is he who walks aright.
 
18.  *     Who gives his wealth that he may grow in goodness. (9:111).
 
19.  *     Not that he is returning any favors. (76:9).
 
20.  *     But only to seek the Approval of his Lord, the Most High.
 
21.  *     And soon he will be pleased.
