(Whosoever doeth right) sincerely between him and his Lord and acknowledges the Truth, (whether male or female, and is a believer) and, in addition, a sincere one, (him verily We shall quicken with good life) spent in obedience; it is also said that this means: a good life spent in contentment; and it is also said that this means: a good life spent in Paradise, (and We shall pay them a recompense) their reward in the Hereafter (in proportion to the best of what they used to do) because of their beneficence in this worldly life. This verse was revealed about 'Abdan Ibn al-Ashu' and Imra' al-Qays al-Kindi regarding a dispute over a plot of land.
