Surah 95: The Fig (Al-Tin)

وَالتّينِ وَالزَّيتونِ

By the fig and the olive.

*95:1-3 The fig, olive, Sinai, and Mecca possibly symbolize Adam, Jesus, Moses, Abraham, and Muhammad, respectively. Thus, all major religions are represented.

وَطورِ سينينَ

Mount Sinai.

وَهٰذَا البَلَدِ الأَمينِ

And this honored town (Mecca).*

لَقَد خَلَقنَا الإِنسٰنَ فى أَحسَنِ تَقويمٍ

We created man in the best design.

ثُمَّ رَدَدنٰهُ أَسفَلَ سٰفِلينَ

Then turned him into the lowliest of the lowly.

إِلَّا الَّذينَ ءامَنوا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ فَلَهُم أَجرٌ غَيرُ مَمنونٍ

Except those who believe and lead a righteous life; they receive a reward that is well deserved.

فَما يُكَذِّبُكَ بَعدُ بِالدّينِ

Why do you still reject the faith?

أَلَيسَ اللَّهُ بِأَحكَمِ الحٰكِمينَ

Is God not the Most Wise, of all the wise ones?
