Hast thou considered him who turns his back 33 And he gave a little, then refrained? 34 Does he possess the knowledge of the Unseen, and therefore he sees? 35 Or, has he not been told of that which is in the Scrolls of Moses 36 And (of) Ibrahim who fulfilled (the commandments): 37 “That no bearer of a burden shall bear the burden of another, 38 and that nought shall be accounted unto man but what he is striving for; 39 and that (the result of) his striving shall soon be seen, 40 whereupon he shall be requited for it with the fullest requital; 41 and that the final return is to your Lord, 42 And that He it is Who makes (men) laugh and makes (them) weep; 43 And that it is He who causes death and gives life 44 And that He created pairs, the male and the female 45 from an ejected drop of sperm; 46 and that it is for Him to grant the second life, 47 And that He it is Who enricheth and contenteth; 48 And that He it is Who is the Lord of Sirius; 49 that it was He that destroyed ancient Aad 50 And Thamud, and did not leave them, 51 And also the people of Nuh aforetime. Verily they were even greater wrong-doers and more contumacious. 52 And He destroyed the overthrown cities [of Sodom to which Prophet Lout (Lot) was sent]. 53 And covered them by that which He covered. 54 How many favours of your Lord will you then deny? 55 This is a warner of the warners of old. 56 The Day of Judgment is drawing nearer. 57 No one besides God can rescue a soul from hardship. 58 Do you then find these tidings strange? 59 And you laugh at it and weep not, 60 And you are lost in play! 61 But fall ye down in prostration to Allah, and adore (Him)! ۩ 62
