What It Means: Reading in Context

This question appears within Ar-Rahmaan’s description of the gardens promised to one who fears standing before the Lord, introduced at 55:46. Read it in that setting of divine reward, rather than as a guarantee of an immediate worldly return for each good action. This entry presents Qur’an 55:60 from Surah Ar-Rahmaan, with Arabic text and Marmaduke Pickthall’s English translation. The translation conveys meaning in English; it is not a replacement for the Arabic Qur’an. Read the linked passage with the verses before and after it, particularly when a sentence continues across verse boundaries. The topics shown here are editorial reading aids rather than an exhaustive interpretation of the passage. Our short reflection offers a possible practical response, clearly separated from scripture. It should not be repeated as a verse, hadith or authoritative tafsir. For detailed interpretation or questions about religious practice, consult qualified scholarship and the complete source.

REFLECTION · EDITORIAL

Continue a good action for its worth, even when recognition or repayment does not follow.

This reflection is not Qur’an, hadith or an authoritative tafsir.
