[89:16] But if He tests him through reduction in provisions, he says, “My Lord is humiliating me!”
١٧:كَلّا بَل لا تُكرِمونَ اليَتيمَ
[89:17] Wrong! It is you who brought it on yourselves by not regarding the orphan.

[89:23] On that day, Gehenna will be brought forth. On that day, the human being will remember—but what a remembrance—it will be too late.

[89:24] He will say, “Oh, I wish I prepared for my (eternal) life.”
