Sura 23
Aya 10
10
أُولٰئِكَ هُمُ الوارِثونَ

Yusuf Ali

These will be the heirs,1
  • Cf. 21:105, where it is said that the righteous will inherit the earth. In the first verse of this Sūra, the final success or victory is referred to. Truth will prevail even on this earth, but it may not be for any individual men of righteousness to see it: it may be in the time of their heirs and successors. But in the life to come, there is no doubt that every man will see the fruit of his life here, and the righteous will inherit heaven, in the sense that they will attain it after their death here.
