By the fig and the olive.
وَالتّينِ وَالزَّيتونِ
wat teeni waz zaitoon
And this honored town (Mecca).*
وَهٰذَا البَلَدِ الأَمينِ
wa haazal balad-il ameen
*95:1-3 The fig, olive, Sinai and Mecca possibly symbolize Adam, Jesus, Moses, Abraham and Muhammad, respectively. Thus, all major religions are represented.
We created man in the best design.
لَقَد خَلَقنَا الإِنسٰنَ فى أَحسَنِ تَقويمٍ
laqad khalaqnal insaana fee ahsani taqweem
Then turned him into the lowliest of the lowly.
ثُمَّ رَدَدنٰهُ أَسفَلَ سٰفِلينَ
thumma ra dad naahu asfala saafileen
Except those who believe and lead a righteous life; they receive a reward that is well deserved.
إِلَّا الَّذينَ ءامَنوا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ فَلَهُم أَجرٌ غَيرُ مَمنونٍ
ill-lal lazeena aamanoo wa ‘amilus saalihaati; falahum ajrun ghairu mamnoon
Why do you still reject the faith?
فَما يُكَذِّبُكَ بَعدُ بِالدّينِ
fama yu kaz zibuka b’adu bid deen
Is God not the Most Wise, of all the wise ones?
أَلَيسَ اللَّهُ بِأَحكَمِ الحٰكِمينَ
alai sal laahu bi-ahkamil haakimeen
