5. 76:5

   إِنَّ ٱلۡأَبۡرَارَ يَشۡرَبُونَ مِن كَأۡسٖ كَانَ مِزَاجُهَا كَافُورًا ٥

   Indeed, the righteous will drink from a cup [of wine] whose mixture is of Kāfūr,

6. 76:6

   عَيۡنٗا يَشۡرَبُ بِهَا عِبَادُ ٱللَّهِ يُفَجِّرُونَهَا تَفۡجِيرٗا ٦

   A spring of which the [righteous] servants of Allāh will drink; they will make it gush forth in force [and abundance].

7. 76:7

   يُوفُونَ بِٱلنَّذۡرِ وَيَخَافُونَ يَوۡمٗا كَانَ شَرُّهُۥ مُسۡتَطِيرٗا ٧

    [And it will be said], "Indeed, this is for you a reward, and your effort has been appreciated."

23. 76:23

    إِنَّا نَحۡنُ نَزَّلۡنَا عَلَيۡكَ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ تَنزِيلٗا ٢٣
