Hast thou considered him who turns his back 33 And gave a little and [then] refrained? 34 Does he [claim to] have knowledge of something that is beyond the reach of human perception, so that he can see [it clearly]? 35 Has not he been informed of the contents of the Book of Moses 36 And of Abraham who fulfilled his engagements?- 37 that no soul shall bear the burden of another; 38 and that a man shall have to his account only as he has laboured, 39 and that his work is surely seen 40 Then he will be fully repaid for it? 41 And that thy Lord, He is the goal; 42 that it is He who causes to laugh and causes to weep. 43 And that He it is Who causes death and gives life- 44 It is He who has created spouses, male and female, 45 from an ejaculated drop (of sperm), 46 and that upon Him rests the second growth, 47 and that it is He alone who frees from want and causes to possess; 48 And that He it is Who is the Lord of Sirius; 49 It was He who totally destroyed the former 'Ad 50 And Thamud (people). He spared none of them. 51 And the folk of Noah aforetime, Lo! they were more unjust and more rebellious; 52 And the overturned towns He hurled down 53 So that they were covered over by what they were covered over. 54 Concerning which then, of the bounties of thy Lord, canst thou dispute? 55 This is a warner of the warners of old. 56 What is to come is imminent. 57 [although] none but God can unveil it.... 58 Do you then wonder at this recital (the Quran)? 59 And laugh and not weep, 60 And ye are behaving proudly. 61 Bow instead in adoration before God and worship Him. ۩ 62
