If they (still) call you a liar, tell them: "For me my actions, for you yours. You are not answerable for my deeds, nor I for what you do." 41 Of them some seem to give heed to you; will you, then, make the deaf hear even though they understand nothing? 42 And among them is one who gazes at you; so will you guide the blind* even if they cannot perceive? (* Deaf or blind to guidance.) 43 Verily Allah will not deal unjustly with man in aught: It is man that wrongs his own soul. 44 The Day when He will gather them, (it will be) as though they had lingered but an hour of the Day and they will recognize one another.

(It will then be said): 'Ah! now? and ye wanted (aforetime) to hasten it on!' 51 The unjust will be told, "Suffer the everlasting torment.
