Allah never Wills you to forget (17:86). Behold, He knows the manifest and what is hidden.
وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ ( 8 )
And thus We shall ease your way to the ultimate ease. (To the end that you will establish the Qur'an in the society).
فَذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ الذِّكْرَىٰ ( 9 )
Therefore, keep reminding, for, the Reminder does benefit.
سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰ ( 10 )
(Behold), he will heed who fears (the consequences of pre-emptive rejection).
وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا الْأَشْقَى ( 11 )
And only the unfortunate will stay on the side-lines.
الَّذِي يَصْلَى النَّارَ الْكُبْرَىٰ ( 12 )
He who will be cast into the great Fire.
ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ ( 13 )
Wherein he neither dies nor lives. Mere survival!
قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ ( 14 )
Successful, indeed, is he who primes his 'Self' for development. (Living upright, helping others).
وَذَكَرَ اسْمَ رَبِّهِ فَصَلَّىٰ ( 15 )
And keeps foremost in mind the Name and the Attributes of his Lord and then follows through.
بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا ( 16 )
But nay, you prefer the life of this world. (Given to instant gains instead of living upright that ensures success in both lives (2:201), (3:147), (4:134), (7:156), (10:64), (17:72), (28:77), (42:22)).
وَالْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَىٰ ( 17 )
Although the Hereafter is better and more enduring.
إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَفِي الصُّحُفِ الْأُولَىٰ ( 18 )
Behold, this has been said in the former Revelations as well. ('Suhuf' = Scrolls = Revelations).
