Didst thou (O Muhammad) observe him who turned away, 33 And gives a little and (then) withholds. 34 Does he [claim to] have knowledge of something that is beyond the reach of human perception, so that he can see [it clearly]? 35 Nay, is he not acquainted with what is in the Books of Moses- 36 And of Ibrahim who faithfully fulfilled? 37 That no burdened person (with sins) shall bear the burden (sins) of another. 38 And that man can have nothing but what he does (good or bad). 39 And that his effort will soon be scrutinised? 40 then he shall be recompensed for it with the fullest recompense, 41 and that the final end is unto thy Lord, 42 And that it is He Who made (you) laugh and made (you) cry? 43 and that He it is Who causes death and grants life, 44 And that He creates the two mates - the male and female - 45 From Nutfah (drops of semen male and female discharges) when it is emitted; 46 That the second creation is incumbent on Him; 47 and that it is He alone who frees from want and causes to possess; 48 that He is the Lord of Sirius, 49 and that He destroyed Ad, the ancient, 50 And Samood, so He spared not 51 as well as the people of Noah before them - [since,] verily, they all had been most willful in their evildoing and most overweening 52 And He brought perdition upon the subverted cities 53 So there covered them that which covered. 54 So O listener! Which favour of your Lord will you doubt? 55 This is a warner of the warners of old. 56 The Imminent is near at hand; 57 There shall be none besides Allah to remove it. 58 Do you then wonder at this recital (the Quran)? 59 Or do you laugh, and do you not weep 60 while you make merry? 61 Prostrate yourselves before Allah, and serve Him. ۩ 62
