Surah Ya-Sin — Ayah 35 (36:35)
لِيَأۡكُلُواْ مِن ثَمَرِهِۦ وَمَا عَمِلَتۡهُ أَيۡدِيهِمۡۚ أَفَلَا يَشۡكُرُونَ ٣٥
English translation (Saheeh International)
That they may eat of His fruit.1 And their hands have not produced it,2 so will they not be grateful?
- i.e., that which Allāh has produced for them.
- An alternative meaning is "And [eat from] what their hands have produced [i.e., planted and harvested]." Both are grammatically correct.
Brief commentary
So that people can eat of the fruits of those gardens that Allah has blessed them with and for which they did not make any effort. Do they not thank Allah, Who gave them all of that out of His bounty and mercy for them, by worshipping Him alone and having faith in His messengers?!
