Didst thou (O Muhammad) observe him who turned away, 33 and gives so little [of himself for the good of his soul,] and so grudgingly? 34 Does he possess the knowledge of the unseen, thus, he sees (all things)? 35 Or has he not been informed of what was in the scriptures of Moses 36 and of Abraham, who lived up to the trust? 37 That no soul shall bear another's burden, 38 and that a man shall have to his account only as he has laboured, 39 And that his striving shall soon be seen- 40 Then he will be recompensed for it with the fullest recompense 41 and that with thy Sustainer is the beginning and the end [of all that exists]; 42 And that it is He who makes [one] laugh and weep 43 And He who ordains death and life; 44 That He created pairs, male and female, 45 From a drop of liquid, when it is added? 46 And that only upon Him is the next revival? 47 and that it is He who gives riches and causes to hoard, 48 and that it is He who is the Lord of Sirius, 49 and that it is He who destroyed the ancient [tribes of] Ad 50 And (the tribe of) Thamud He spared not; 51 and the people of Noah before -- certainly they did exceeding evil, and were insolent 52 And He destroyed the Overthrown Cities (of Sodom and Gomorrah). 53 So they were covered with whatever covered them? 54 Then which of thy Lord's bounties disputest thou? 55 He who warns you is one of the warners of old. 56 The Imminent is imminent; 57 and none but Allah can avert it. 58 Do you marvel then at this discourse (the Koran)? 59 And you laugh, and do not weep! 60 while you make merry? 61 So prostrate yourselves before Allah and worship. ۩ 62
