We shall make satan the companion of whoever ignores the remembrance of the Beneficent God. 36 Such (evil ones) really hinder them from the Path, but they think that they are being guided aright! 37 But when he comes to Us, he will say (to his satan): “Would that there had been between me and you the distance as between the East and the West. How evil a companion you were!” 38 And it will profit you not today, because ye have done wrong, that ye are in the torment sharers. 39 What! can you then make the deaf to hear or guide the blind and him who is in clear error? 40 And if We take thee away, We shall surely take vengeance on them. 41 or make you see the end that We had promised them, for We have full power over them. 42 So adhere to that which is revealed to you. Indeed, you are on a straight path. 43 And indeed, it is a remembrance for you and your people, and you [all] are going to be questioned. 44 Ask those of Our Messengers We sent before thee: Have We appointed, apart from the All-merciful, gods to be served? 45
