Servant Of The Light

Surah 102: 1             ِأَلْهَاكُمُ التَّكَاثُرُ

The ones in the midst of you, who contend collectively for superiority in the pursuit of knowledge and the practice of eternal principles, would be unable to accomplish these goal without pursuing the truthful guidance.

Surah 102: 2             حَتَّى زُرْتُمُ الْمَقَابِرَ

To the degree this applies, put your affairs into a sound and proper state, and strive continuously to acquaint yourself with the extraordinary abilities of successful behaviour from that foundation, until your end in a cemetery.

Surah 102: 3             كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ

Be neither easily defeated, and lethargic, and so incapacitated, nor delay the pursuit of the acquisition of knowledge.

Surah 102: 4             ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ

In order for your affairs to be in a wondrous state; be neither easily defeated, and lethargic, and so incapacitated, nor delay the pursuit of the acquisition of knowledge.

Surah 102: 5             كَلَّا لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عِلْمَ الْيَقِينِ

Do not act lethargically so being easily defeated, and incapacitated in the pursuit of knowledge; because this pursuit of knowledge causes self confident protection and security from all evils, being the exceeding of due limits.

Surah 102: 6             لَتَرَوُنَّ الْجَحِيمَ

Let not the attainment of knowledge become a hard and difficult affair; or else it may become like a putrefaction of your essence: like you are burning in a fire, consumed by your emotions.

Surah 102: 7             ثُمَّ لَتَرَوُنَّهَا عَيْنَ الْيَقِينِ

In order for your affairs to be in wondrous state; let not the acquisition of knowledge become a hard and difficult affair: else it becomes like a burning up of your essence. This will cause a lack of power, and so the ability to thoroughly execute the self confident protection and security from all evils, being the exceeding of due limits.

Surah 102: 8             ثُمَّ لَتُسْأَلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ النَّعِيمِ

In order for your affairs to be in an extraordinary state; and to be amongst those who lead a pleasant and easy state of life; all those who are lethargic and without a care, should from this point take action, to absolutely not be amongst those experiencing and suffering from what exceeds due limits or to be rude unpleasant or quarrelsome, to a vehement degree.
