As for those who preserve themselves from evil and follow the straight path, there is attainment for them:
Indeed the place of success is for the pious.
Surely for the godfearing awaits a place of security,
[But,] verily for the God-conscious there is supreme fulfilment in store:
Verily for the God-fearing is an achievement.
Verily, for the Muttaqun, there will be a success (Paradise);
But for the righteous there is triumph.
Surely the state of triumph awaits the God-fearing:
Verily, for those who have Taqwa, there will be a success;
Lo! for the duteous is achievement -
Indeed a triumph awaits the Godwary:
But, for the cautious a place of prosperity,
Indeed, for the righteous is attainment -
The pious ones will be triumphant.
Surely for those who guard (against evil) is achievement,
Inna lilmuttaqeena maf<u>a</u>z<u>a</u><b>n</b>
As for those who are mindful of God, they shall surely triumph:
Verily for the Righteous there will be a fulfilment of (the heart's) desires;
إِنَّ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ مَفَازًا
Indeed, for those who are mindful of their Lord by fulfilling His commands and refraining from the things he has not allowed, there is a point of success they will succeed on, by achieving the Paradise they sought.

<h2 class="title">The Great Success will be for Those Who have Taqwa</h2><p>Allah informs about the happy people and what He has prepared for them of esteem, and eternal pleasure. Allah says,</p><div class="text_uthmani arabic">إِنَّ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ مَفَازاً </div><p>(Verily, for those who have Taqwa, there will be a success;) Ibn `Abbas and Ad-Dahhak both said, "A place of enjoyable recreation." Mujahid and Qatadah both said, "They are successful and thus, they are saved from the Hellfire." The most obvious meaning here is the statement of Ibn `Abbas, because Allah says after this,</p><div class="text_uthmani arabic">حَدَآئِقَ</div><p>(Hada'iq) And Hada'iq are gardens of palm trees and other things.</p><div class="text_uthmani arabic">حَدَآئِقَ وَأَعْنَـباً - وَكَوَاعِبَ أَتْرَاباً </div><p>(And vineyards, and Kawa`ib Atrab,) meaning, wide-eyed maidens with fully developed breasts. Ibn `Abbas, Mujahid and others have said,</p><div class="text_uthmani arabic">كَواعِبَ</div><p>(Kawa`ib) "This means round breasts. They meant by this that the breasts of these girls will be fully rounded and not sagging, because they will be virgins, equal in age. This means that they will only have one age." The explanation of this has already been mentioned in Surat Al-Waqi`ah. Concerning Allah's statement,</p><div class="text_uthmani arabic">وَكَأْساً دِهَاقاً </div><p>(And a cup Dihaq.) Ibn `Abbas said, "Continuously filled." `Ikrimah said, "Pure." Mujahid, Al-Hasan, Qatadah, and Ibn Zayd all said,</p><div class="text_uthmani arabic">دِهَاقاً</div><p>(Dihaq) "This means completely filled."

(52:23) meaning, there will not be any vain, worthless speech therein, nor any sinful lying. Rather, it will be the abode of peace, and everything that is in it will be free of any shortcomings. Allah then says,</p><div class="text_uthmani arabic">جَزَآءً مِّن رَّبِّكَ عَطَآءً حِسَاباً </div><p>(Rewarded from your Lord with a sufficient gift.) meaning, `this that We have mentioned to you is what Allah will reward them with, and they will be given it by His favor and from Him.

This means that he sufficiently provided for me." From this comes the saying, "Allah is sufficient for me."</p>
