We shall attach to him who goes blind to the remembrance of Ar-Rahman a devil as companion, -- 36 And lo! they surely turn them from the way of Allah, and yet they deem that they are rightly guided; 37 And when he comes before Us, he shall say: 'Would that there had been between me and you, the distance of the two Easts' Evil is the companion. 38 Because of the harm you did, it would be of no benefit to you today, you are partners in the punishment. 39 Wherefore canst thou make the deaf to hear, or canst thou guide the blind or him who is is error manifest? 40 But if We should take you away, still We shall inflict retribution on them; 41 or We show you a part of that which We have promised them, for indeed We have power over them. 42 So hold thou fast to the Revelation sent down to thee; verily thou art on a Straight Way. 43 It is a (source) of greatness for you and your people. You will surely be questioned about it. 44 Ask Our Messengers whom We sent before you if We have ever made gods, other than the Merciful, to be worshipped. 45
