19* Those who do wish for the (things of) the Hereafter, and strive therefor with all due striving, and have Faith,- they are the ones whose striving will be thanked (by Allah).  
| |20* Of the bounties of thy Lord We bestow freely on all- these as well as those. The bounties of thy Lord are not closed (to anyone).  
| |21* See how We have bestowed more on some than on others; but verily the Hereafter is more in rank and gradation and more in excellence.  
| |22* Take not with Allah another god; or thou (O man!) wilt sit in disgrace and destitution.  
| |23* Thy Lord hath decreed that ye worship none but Him, and that ye be kind to parents. Whether one or both of them attain old age in thy life, say not to them a word of contempt, nor repel them, but address them in terms of honor.  
| |24* And, out of kindness, lower to them the wing of humility, and say: "My Lord! bestow on them Thy Mercy even as they cherished me in childhood."  
| |25* Your Lord knoweth best what is in your hearts: If ye do deeds of righteousness, verily He is Most Forgiving to those who turn to Him again and again (in true penitence).  
| |26* And render to the kindred their due rights, as (also) to those in want, and to the wayfarer: But squander not (your wealth) in the manner of a spendthrift.  
| |27* Verily spendthrifts are brothers of the Satans; and the Satan is to his Lord (himself) ungrateful.  
| |28* And even if thou hast to turn away from them in pursuit of the Mercy from thy Lord which thou dost expect, yet speak to them a word of easy kindness.
