Sura 70
Aya 19
19
۞ إِنَّ الإِنسانَ خُلِقَ هَلوعًا

Yusuf Ali

Truly man was created very impatient;-1
  • Man, according to the Plan of God, was to be in the best of moulds (95:4). But in order to fulfil his high destiny he was given free will to a limited extent. The wrong use of this free will makes his nature weak (4:28), or hasty (17:11), or impatient, as here. That becomes his nature by his own act, but he is spoken of as so created because of the capacities given to him in his creation.
