13:19 Is the one who knows that what has been sent down from your Lord is the truth like the one who is blind[1]? None will take heed except the people of understanding,

13:20 those who fulfill the covenant of Allah and do not break the pledge,

13:21 and those who maintain [the ties] which Allah has ordered to be maintained[1], and fear their Lord, and are afraid of a terrible reckoning,

13:22 and those who observe patience, seeking the pleasure of their Lord, and establish prayer, and spend from what We have provided for them, secretly and in public, and repel evil with good – it is they who will have the final abode[1],

13:23 Gardens of Eternity, which they will enter together with the righteous from among their parents, their spouses and their offspring. Angels will enter upon them from every gate,

13:24 “Peace be on you, for what you have patiently endured. How excellent is the final abode!”

13:25 As for those who break the covenant of Allah after it has been ratified, and sever the ties that Allah has commanded to be maintained, and spread corruption in the land – it is they who are cursed, and for them there will be the worst abode[1].

13:26 Allah extends provision to whom He wills or restricts it. They rejoice in the life of this world, although the life of this world, compared to the Hereafter, is nothing but a fleeting pleasure.

13:27 Those who disbelieve say, “Why has no sign been sent down to him from his Lord?” Say, “Allah causes to stray whom He wills and guides to Himself who turns to Him,

13:28 those who believe and whose hearts find tranquility in the remembrance of Allah, for indeed in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find tranquility.
