Final part is before us, we can see, irrespective of the religious affinity, the universality of the message and the truth therein.

51. Do not be jealous of those who are blessed [4/54]. {Do they, perchance, envy other people for what Allah has granted them out of His bounty? But then, We did grant revelation and wisdom unto the House of Ibrahim, and We did bestow on them a mighty dominion}.

52. In your collective life, make rooms for others [58/11]. {O YOU who have attained to faith ! When you are told, "Make room for one another in your collective life", do make room: [and in return] Allah will make room for you [in His grace]- - - - - -}.

53. When invited to dine, Go at the appointed time. Do not arrive too early to wait for the preparation of meal or linger after eating to engage in bootless babble. Such things may cause inconvenience to the host [33/53]. {O YOU who have attained to faith ! Do not enter the Prophet's dwellings unless you are given leave; [and when invited] to a meal, do not come [so early as] to wait for it to be readied: but whenever you are invited, enter [at the proper time]; and when you have partaken of the meal, disperse without lingering for the sake of mere talk; - - - - - - -}.

54. Eat and drink [what is lawful] in moderation [7/31]. {O CHILDREN OF ADAM ! Beautify yourselves for every act of worship, and eat and drink [freely], but do not waste: verily, He does not love the wasteful}.

55. Do not squander your wealth senselessly [17/26]. {And give his due to the near of kin, as well as to the needy and the wayfarer, but do not squander [your substance] senselessly. Behold, the squanderers are, indeed, of the ilk of the satans - inasmuch as Satan has indeed proved most ungrateful to his Sustainer}.

56. Fulfill your promises and commitments [17/34]. {And do not touch the substance of an orphan, save to improve it, before he comes of age, And be true to every promise - for, verily, [on Judgement Day] you will be called to account for every promise which you have made}.

57. Keep yourself clean, pure [9/108, 4/43, 5/6]. {Never set foot in such a place ! Only a house of worship founded, from the very first day, therein - [a house of worship] wherein there are men desirous of growing in purity: for Allah loves all purify themselves. 9 : 108}.

{O YOU who have attained to faith ! Do not attempt to pray while you are in a state of drunkenness- - - - - - - 4 : 43}.

{O YOU who have attained to faith ! When you are about to pray, wash your face, and your hands and arms up to - -- - - 5 : 6}.

58. Dress-up in agreeable attire and adorn yourself with exquisite character from inside out [7/26]. {O CHILDREN OF ADAM ! Indeed We have bestowed upon you from on high [the knowledge of making] garments to cover your nakedness, and as a thing of beauty: but the garment of Allah-consciousness is the best of all. Herein lies a message from Allah, so that man might take it to heart}.

59. Seek your provision only by fair Endeavor [29/17, 2/188]. {- - -then all your sustenance from Allah, and worship Him [alone] and be grateful to Him: [for] unto Him you shall be brought back 29 : 17}.

{AND DEVOUR NOT one another's possessions wrongfully, and neither employ legal artifices with a view to devouring sinfully, and knowingly, anything that by right belongs to others; 2 : 188}.

60. Do not devour the wealth and property of others unjustly, nor bribe the officials or the judges to deprive others of their possessions [2/188]. {{AND DEVOUR NOT one another's possessions wrongfully, and neither employ legal artifices with a view to devouring sinfully, and knowingly, anything that by right belongs to others}.
