Quran 16:81~83

And Allah has provided you shade out of what He created, and has given you shelter in the mountains. He has also provided you with clothes protecting you from the heat ˹and cold˺, and armour shielding you in battle. This is how He perfects His favour upon you, so perhaps you will ˹fully˺ submit ˹to Him˺. But if they turn away, then your duty ˹O Prophet˺ is only to deliver ˹the message˺ clearly. They are aware of Allah’s favours, but still deny them. And most of them are ˹truly˺ ungrateful. Quran: 16:81~83 [ an-Nahl (The Bee) ]
The surah takes its name from Ayat no. 68,
“And your Lord inspired to the bee,
“Take for yourself among the mountains, houses, and among the trees and [in] that which they construct.”
It is also referred to as the surah of blessings as it contains many of the blessings of Allah upon mankind.
There are 128 Ayat in this Surah.

وَٱللَّهُ جَعَلَ لَكُم مِّمَّا خَلَقَ ظِلَـٰلࣰا وَجَعَلَ لَكُم مِّنَ ٱلۡجِبَالِ أَكۡنَـٰنࣰا وَجَعَلَ لَكُمۡ سَرَ ٰبِیلَ تَقِیكُمُ ٱلۡحَرَّ وَسَرَ ٰبِیلَ تَقِیكُم بَأۡسَكُمۡۚ كَذَ ٰلِكَ یُتِمُّ نِعۡمَتَهُۥ عَلَیۡكُمۡ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تُسۡلِمُونَ فَإِن تَوَلَّوۡا۟ فَإِنَّمَا عَلَیۡكَ ٱلۡبَلَـٰغُ ٱلۡمُبِینُ یَعۡرِفُونَ نِعۡمَتَ ٱللَّهِ ثُمَّ یُنكِرُونَهَا وَأَكۡثَرُهُمُ ٱلۡكَـٰفِرُونَ
The Surah speaks about Allah’s creative power. Everything in the universe points to Allah. There is coherence and balance in Allah’s creation.
اور خدا ہی نے تمہارے (آرام کے) لیے اپنی پیدا کی ہوئی چیزوں کے سائے بنائے اور پہاڑوں میں غاریں بنائیں اور کُرتے بنائے جو تم کو گرمی سے بچائیں۔ اور (ایسے) کُرتے (بھی) جو تم کو اسلحہ جنگ (کے ضرر) سے محفوظ رکھیں۔ اسی طرح خدا اپنا احسان تم پر پورا کرتا ہے تاکہ تم فرمانبردار بنو اور اگر یہ لوگ اعتراض کریں تو (اے پیغمبر) تمہارا کام فقط کھول کر سنا دینا ہے یہ خدا کی نعمتوں سے واقف ہیں۔ مگر (واقف ہو کر) اُن سے انکار کرتے ہیں اور یہ اکثر ناشکرے ہیں

Quran 56:41~48

And the people of the left—how ˹miserable˺ will they be! ˹They will be˺ in scorching heat and boiling water, in the shade of black smoke, neither cool nor refreshing. Indeed, before this ˹torment˺ they were spoiled by luxury, and persisted in the worst of sin. They used to ask ˹mockingly˺, “When we are dead and reduced to dust and bones, will we really be resurrected? And our forefathers as well?” Quran 56:41~48
This Surah takes its name from the first Ayat, إِذَا وَقَعَتِ الْوَاقِعَةُ “When the Occurrence occurs,” (56:1).
There are 96 Ayat in this Surah.

وَأَصْحَبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ مَآ أَصْحَبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ ‎ ‏فِى سَمُومٍۢ وَحَمِيمٍۢ ‎ ‏وَظِلٍّۢ مِّن يَحْمُومٍۢ ‎ ‏لَّا بَارِدٍۢ وَلَا كَرِيمٍ ‎ ‏إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ مُتْرَفِينَ ‎ ‏وَكَانُوا۟ يُصِرُّونَ عَلَى ٱلْحِنثِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ‎ ‏وَكَانُوا۟ يَقُولُونَ أَئِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًۭا وَعِظَمًا أَءِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ ‎ ‏أَوَءَابَآؤُنَا ٱلْأَوَّلُونَ ‎ ‎
The Surah talks about the resurrection that will definitely take place. It is a fact undeniable. The human beings then will be in three different groups. The faithful are of two types: those who are the pioneers and are foremost in their faith and struggle in the path of Allah. They are a large number from amongst the earlier community and a small from among the later generations. Then the rest of the people are believers and those who oppose the faith. Allah’s rewards are for the faithful and his anger and chastisement is waiting for the opponents of faith.
The Surah then invites human beings to think about themselves and the things that they use daily and consider who created all these things. It talks about the Qur’an and its profound and consistent message and then finally reminds about death and the coming end of every being.
اور بائیں ہاتھ والے (افسوس) بائیں ہاتھ والے کیا (ہی عذاب میں) ہیں (یعنی دوزخ کی) لپٹ اور کھولتے ہوئے پانی میں اور سیاہ دھوئیں کے سائے میں (جو) نہ ٹھنڈا (ہے) نہ خوشنما یہ لوگ اس سے پہلے عیشِ نعیم میں پڑے ہوئے تھے اور گناہ عظیم پر اڑے ہوئے تھے اور کہا کرتے تھے کہ بھلا جب ہم مرگئے اور مٹی ہوگئے اور ہڈیاں (ہی ہڈیاں رہ گئے) تو کیا ہمیں پھر اُٹھنا ہوگا؟ اور کیا ہمارے باپ دادا کو بھی؟
