In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most
Merciful.
71. And whoever repents and does good has
truly turned to Allah with a conversion-
72. Those who witness no falsehood, and if they
pass by futility, they pass it with honor;
73. Those who, when they are admonished with
the signs of their Lord, droop not down at them
as if they were deaf or blind;
74. And those who pray, "Our Lord! Grant unto us
wives and offspring who will be the comfort of
our eyes, and give us to lead the righteous."
75. These are the ones who will be rewarded
with the highest place in heaven, because of
their patient constancy: therein they shall be
met with salutations and peace,
76. Dwelling therein- how beautiful an abode
and a place of rest!
77. Say: "My Lord is not uneasy because of you if
you call not on God, but you have indeed
rejected, and soon will come the inevitable."
The Criterion 25:71-77

Our Lord! Grant unto us wives and offspring who
will be the comfort of our eyes, and give us to
lead the righteous.
My Lord is not uneasy because of you if you call
not on God, but you have indeed rejected, and
soon will come the inevitable.
Human rejection of God occurs over and over
again, this is taught repeatedly in the Qur'an.
The end result is the destruction of entire
populations.
Here God states some of the characteristics of
those who will be delivered to heaven, after the
short stay on earth.
God also instructs the believers to warn the
unbelievers, that God acknowledges their
rejection of Faith, that the rejection has no
effect on God, and soon the unbelievers will get
the convincing that they asked for.
