۞ Who does greater evil than he who lies against Allah and belies the truth when it comes to him? Is there not a lodging in Gehenna (Hell) for the unbelievers? 32 He who brings the truth, and he who testifies to it as such -- those are surely the people who are God-fearing: 33 They shall have whatsoever they will with their Lord; that is the recompense of the good-doers, 34 God will efface their worst deeds from their record and give them their reward in accordance with the best of their actions. 35 Will not Allah defend His slave? Yet they would frighten thee with those beside Him. He whom Allah sendeth astray, for him there is no guide. 36 but he whom God guides cannot be led astray by anyone. Is God not mighty and capable of retribution? 37 If you ask them: “Who created the heavens and the earth?” they will surely answer: “Allah.” Tell them: “What do you think, then, of the deities whom you call upon instead of Allah? If Allah should will that an affliction befall me, will those deities remove the harm inflicted by Him? Or if Allah should will that I receive (His) Mercy, will they be able to withhold His Mercy from me?” Say: “Allah is sufficient for me; those who have to put their trust, let them put their trust in Him. 38 Proclaim, “O my people! Keep on with your works in your positions, I am doing mine; so you will soon come to know.” – 39 Who suffers the shameful punishment, and on whom falls the everlasting torment. 40 Surely We have revealed to you the Book with the truth for the sake of men; so whoever follows the right way, it is for his own soul and whoever errs, he errs only to its detriment; and you are not a custodian over them. 41
