Al-Fajr (The Dawn, Daybreak)
Verse 15
Translation:
15. Now as for man when his Lord trieth him giving him honor and gifts then saith he (puffed up) "My Lord hath honored me."
Notes (Tafseer):
6119. Contrast with Allah's justice and watchful care, man's selfishness and pettiness. Allah tries us both by prosperity and adversity: in the one we should show humility and kindness; and in the other patience and faith. On the contrary, we get puffed up in prosperity and depressed in adversity, putting false values on this world's goods.
