And if they reject you as false, tell them: 'My deeds are for myself and your deeds for yourselves. You will not be held responsible for my deeds, nor I for your deeds. 41 Of them some seem to give heed to you; will you, then, make the deaf hear even though they understand nothing? 42 And among them are some who look at you, but can you guide the blind, even though they see not? 43 Surely, God does not wrong people at all, but people wrong themselves. 44 (But today they are oblivious of everything except enjoyment of worldly life.)
