61. It is Allah who made for you the night to rest in and the day full of light.85 Allah is bountiful to men, but most men do not give thanks.
62. Such is Allah, your Lord,86 Creator of all things. There is no god but Him. How then can you turn away from Him?87
63. Thus are they made to turn away who deny the revelations of Allah.88
64. It is Allah who has made for you the earth as a dwelling place 89 and the sky for a canopy.90 He has shaped you and has given you comely shapes,91 and has provided you with good things.92 Such is Allah, your Lord. Then blessed be Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.
65. He is the Living One.93 There is no god but Him, So pray to Him, making religion pure for Him (alone). Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds!
66. Say: “I am forbidden to worship those whom you invoke besides Allah, since there have come to me clear proofs from my Lord, and I am commanded to surrender to the Lord of the Worlds.”94
67. It is He who created you from dust,95 then from a life germ,96 and then a clot of blood,97 then brings you forth as a child, 98 then (lets you) reach manhood, and then grow into old age,99 though some of you die before 100 so that you may reach an appointed term,101 and so that you may understand.102
68. It is He who gives life and death. When He decides a thing, He merely says: “Be” and it is.
85. So that in the light of the day efforts to earn the livelihood may be made.
86. He, who has made this arrangement for your nourishment, is your Master.
87. That is: He who is the Master and the Creator, He alone is worthy of worship, but you are influenced by satan and deny such an obvious reality.
88. Means the past disbelieving communities and nations.
89. That is: He made the earth such that it could not be destabilized or disturbed, so that you could walk on it conveniently and live comfortably.
90. In connection with the heavens, please see Surah Inshiqaq Note No.1.
91. Man was given the best shape and form compared to other living creatures.
92. What filthy things are available for the animals to eat, and some animals live in filth only, but man gets such clean, pure and good things to eat. What a big favour of Allah is for mankind!
93. That is: He it is who is ever living and will ever live. As for His creatures, they will live as long as He has willed.
94. To surrender to Allah means to determine to live in total obedience to Allah and to strive for His pleasure only. A person who takes such a decision after due consideration, he worships Allah and only Allah, for when Allah has forbidden him to worship any other being, then how can he indulge in such a dangerous and evil work ? Obedience to Allah and worship of any other being than Allah cannot go together.
95. For explanation please see Surah Hajj Note No.7.
96. For explanation please see Surah Hajj Note No.8.

100. That is: Some one before youth and some one before the old age.
101. That is: The limit of age which is fixed for him, he should reach up to that limit. In other words a man dies only when he completes the time allotted to him for living, by Allah.
102. You are made to pass through these stages of creation and thereafter of the childhood, youth and old age, so that you may reflect and ponder and with the help of your intelligence may recognize your Lord.
