وَأَمَّا إِذَا مَا ابْتَلَاهُ فَقَدَرَ عَلَيْهِ رِزْقَهُ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّي أَهَانَنِ ١٦
But when He trieth him, restricting his subsistence for him, then saith he (in despair), "My Lord hath humiliated me!"
كَلَّا ۖ بَلْ لَا تُكْرِمُونَ الْيَتِيمَ ١٧

وَلَا تَحَاضُّونَ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ الْمِسْكِينِ ١٨
Nor do ye encourage one another to feed the poor!-
