Lo! for those who keep from evil are gardens of bliss with their Lord. 34 Shall We then make the Muslims like the culprits? 35 What has happened to you? How do you judge? 36 Or have you a Book through which you learn. 37 That you have surely therein what you choose? 38 Or do you have oaths [binding] upon Us, extending until the Day of Resurrection, that indeed for you is whatever you judge? 39 Ask them, who among them is a guarantor for it? 40 Or have they "partners"? Then let them bring their "partners" if they are truthful! 41 On the day the great calamity befalls, and they are called to bow in homage, they will not be able to do so. 42 downcast will be their eyes, with ignominy overwhelming them - seeing that they had been called upon [in vain] to prostrate themselves [before Him] while they were yet sound [and alive]. 43 So leave Me, [O Muhammad], with [the matter of] whoever denies the Qur'an. We will progressively lead them [to punishment] from where they do not know. 44 Yet I will give them respite: Surely My plan is compact. 45 Or are you asking them for some compensation so that they feel burdened with debt? 46 Or, is the Unseen with them, and they are writing it down! 47 Exercise patience until the promise of your Lord (to punish the unbelievers) comes true. Do not be like Jonah (who left his people without the permission of God; he wanted them to be punished immediately), 48 If not that a favor from his Lord overtook him, he would have been thrown onto the naked shore while he was censured. 49 But his Lord had chosen him, and He placed him among the righteous. 50 But the unbelievers would like to stare you out of balance when they hear the warning, and say: "Surely he is possessed;" 51 But it is nothing less than a Message to all the worlds. 52
