{23:1} Certainly will the believers have succeeded:

{23:2} They who are during their prayer humbly submissive

{23:3} And they who turn away from ill speech

{23:4} And they who are observant of zakah

{23:5} And they who guard their private parts

{23:6} Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they will not be blamed -

{23:7} But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors -

{23:8} And they who are to their trusts and their promises attentive

{23:9} And they who carefully maintain their prayers -

{23:10} Those are the inheritors

{23:11} Who will inherit al-Firdaus. They will abide therein eternally.

I suggest,
{23:1} Certainly have the believers succeeded:

{23:2} They who during their prayer are submitting,

{23:3} And they who from frivolity are turning aside,

{23:4} And they who of purification are doers,

{23:5} And they who of their openings (private parts) are guarding,

{23:6} Except from their spouses or those which their right hands possess, for indeed, they are not blamed -

{23:7} But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors -

{23:8} And they who to their trusts and their promises are attentive,

{23:9} And they who maintain their prayers.

{23:10} Those are the heirs -

{23:11} Who will inherit Paradise; they are therein perpetuating.
