189. The share of worship, because whatever worship man performs should be offered in the name of Allah Almighty. What he takes is his own share, the rest is for the unrelated person. It is important to regard and appreciate youth before old age, life before death, health before illness and leisure before pre-occupation.

190. On the servants of Allah Almighty as this is the means of expressing gratitude to Him.

191. This means do not spend your wealth and your life on sinful deeds as this leads to the creation of mischief. This tells us that sin is the cause of mischief. Says Allah Almighty: "The mischief has appeared in the land and sea, because of the evils earned by the hands of men" (S30:V41).
