And We granted him his family and a like [number] with them as mercy from Us and a reminder for those of understanding.
[We said], "And take in your hand a bunch [of grass] and strike with it and do not break your oath." Indeed, We found him patient, an excellent servant. Indeed, he was one repeatedly turning back [to Allāh].
And remember Our servants, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - those of strength and [religious] vision.
Indeed, We chose them for an exclusive quality: remembrance of the home [of the Hereafter].
And indeed they are, to Us, among the chosen and outstanding.
And remember Ishmael, Elisha and Dhul-Kifl, and all are among the outstanding.
This is a reminder. And indeed, for the righteous is a good place of return -
Gardens of perpetual residence, whose doors will be opened to them.
Reclining within them, they will call therein for abundant fruit and drink.
And with them will be women limiting [their] glances and of equal age.
This is what you, [the righteous], are promised for the Day of Account.
Indeed, this is Our provision; for it there is no depletion.
This [is so]. But indeed, for the transgressors is an evil place of return -
Hell, which they will [enter to] burn, and wretched is the resting place.
This - so let them taste it - is scalding water and [foul] purulence.
And other [punishments] of its type [in various] kinds.
[Its inhabitants will say], "This is a company bursting in with you. No welcome for them. Indeed, they will burn in the Fire."
They will say, "Nor you! No welcome for you. You, [our leaders], brought this upon us, and wretched is the settlement."
They will say, "Our Lord, whoever brought this upon us - increase for him double punishment in the Fire."
