۞ And who is a greater wrong-doer than he who fabricateth a lie against Allah, and belieth the truth when it cometh unto him? Will not in Hell be an abode for the infidels? 32 Those who have brought the truth and have acknowledged it are those who have fear of God. 33 For them is whatever they wish, before their Lord; this is the reward of the virtuous. 34 That Allah may remove from them the worst of what they did and reward them their due for the best of what they used to do. 35 Is it not that Allah suffices His worshiper, even though they frighten you with those other than Him? He whom Allah leads astray has no guide. 36 And none can lead him astray who has been guided by God. Is not God all-mighty, the lord of retribution? 37 And if you ask them, “Who has created the heavens and the earth?”, they will surely say, “Allah”; say, “What is your opinion regarding those whom you worship other than Allah – if Allah wills to cause me some hardship, so will they avert the hardship sent by Him? Or if He wills to have mercy upon me, so will they restrain His mercy?” Proclaim, “Allah is Sufficient for me; the people who trust must rely only upon Him.” 38 Tell them: “My people, continue to work in your position as you will, I too will continue with my work. Soon you shall know 39 whom the degrading chastisement will visit and upon whom the everlasting chastisement will alight. 40 [O Prophet!] We have sent down to you the Book for mankind with the truth. Then whoever adopts the right way, will do so for his own soul, and whoever goes astray, injures his own soul. You are not their custodian. 41
