________________ LXXVI, 8-36. THE CHAPTER OF MAN. 313 love to the poor and the orphan and the captive. • We only feed you for God's sake; we desire not from you either reward or thanks ; [10] we fear from our Lord a frowning, calamitous day!' And God will guard them from the evil of that day and will cast on them brightness and joy; and their reward for their patience shall be Paradise and silk! reclining therein upon couches they shall neither see therein sun nor piercing cold"; and close down upon them shall be its shadows; and lowered over them its fruits to cull; [15] and they shall be served round with vessels of silver and goblets that are as flagons-flagons of silver which they shall mete out! and they shall drink therein a cup tempered with Zingabîla, a spring therein named Silsabil ! and there shall go round about them eternal boys; when thou seest them thou wilt think them scattered pearls; [20] and when thou seest them thou shalt see pleasure and a great estate! On them shall be garments of green embroidered satin and brocade ; and they shall be adorned with bracelets of silver; and their Lord shall give them to drink pure drink! Verily, this is a reward for you, and your efforts are thanked. Verily, we have sent down upon thee the Qur'ân. Wherefore wait patiently for the judgment of thy Lord, and obey not any sinner or misbeliever amongst them. [25] But remember the name of thy Lord morning, and evening, and through the 1 Zamharîr, the word here rendered 'piercing cold,' is by some authorities interpreted to mean the moon.' 2 Zingabîl signifies 'ginger.'
