Divine Blessings

Those are the ones upon whom are blessings from their Lord and mercy. And it is those who are the [rightly] guided.

And [mention, O Muhammad], when Moses said to his people, "O my people, remember the favor of Allah upon you when He appointed among you prophets and made you possessors and gave you that which He had not given anyone among the worlds.

So when they forgot that by which they had been reminded, We opened to them the doors of every [good] thing until, when they rejoiced in that which they were given, We seized them suddenly, and they were [then] in despair.

And We have certainly established you upon the earth and made for you therein ways of livelihood. Little are you grateful.

O children of Adam, We have bestowed upon you clothing to conceal your private parts and as adornment. But the clothing of righteousness - that is best. That is from the signs of Allah that perhaps they will remember.

And if only the people of the cities had believed and feared Allah, We would have opened upon them blessings from the heaven and the earth; but they denied [the messengers], so We seized them for what they were earning."

But when He gives them a good [child], they ascribe partners to Him concerning that which He has given them. Exalted is Allah above what they associate with Him.

Say, "In the bounty of Allah and in His mercy - in that let them rejoice; it is better than what they accumulate."

Praise to Allah, who has granted to me in old age Ishmael and Isaac. Indeed, my Lord is the Hearer of supplication.

So they will deny what We have given them. Then enjoy yourselves, for you are going to know.

And Allah has favored some of you over others in provision. But those who were favored would not hand over their provision to those whom their right hands possess so they would be equal to them therein. Then is it the favor of Allah they reject?

And Allah has made for you from yourselves mates and has made for you from your mates sons and grandchildren and has provided for you from the good things. Then in falsehood do they believe and in the favor of Allah they disbelieve?

Each of the two gardens produced its fruit and did not fall short thereof in anything. And We caused to gush forth within them a river.

Eat [therefrom] and pasture your livestock. Indeed, in that are signs for those of intelligence.

And the camels and cattle We have appointed for you as among the symbols of Allah; for you therein is good. So mention the name of Allah upon them when lined up [for sacrifice]; and when they are [lifeless] on their sides, then eat from them and feed the needy and the beggar. Thus have We subjected them to you that you may be grateful.

And even if We gave them mercy and removed what was upon them of affliction, they would persist in their transgression, wandering blindly.

Blessed is He who, if He willed, could have made for you [something] better than that - gardens beneath which rivers flow - and could make for you palaces.

So fear Allah and obey me.

And gathered for Solomon were his soldiers of the jinn and men and birds, and they were [marching] in rows.

So that they will deny what We have granted them, and they will enjoy themselves. But they are going to know.
