And Who bringeth out the (green and luscious) pasture,
87:5
فَجَعَلَهُ غُثَاءً أَحْوَىٰ ٥

سَنُقْرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنْسَىٰ ٦
By degrees shall We teach thee to declare (the Message), so thou shalt not forget,

الَّذِي يَصْلَى النَّارَ الْكُبْرَىٰ ١٢
Who will enter the Great Fire,
87:13
ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ ١٣
