Have you then seen him who turns his back? 33 who at first gave a little, then later held back? 34 Does he possess the knowledge of the Unseen, and therefore he sees? 35 Or is he not informed with what is in the Pages (Scripture) of Musa (Moses), 36 And of Ibrahim who faithfully fulfilled? 37 That no laden one shall bear another's load, 38 And that for man shall be naught save that wherefor he endeavoureth. 39 That (the fruit of) his striving will soon come in sight: 40 and that he shall then be fully recompensed, 41 To your Lord will all things eventually return. 42 that it is He who causes to laugh and causes to weep. 43 and that it is He alone who deals death and grants life; 44 And that it is He Who has created the two pairs, male and female? 45 from a discharged living germ 46 And that on Him is the bringing forth a second time; 47 and that it is He who gives riches and causes to hoard, 48 And that He only is the Lord of the star Sirius? 49 And that He destroyed the former (tribe of) A'ad, 50 And Samood, so He spared not 51 and the people of Noah before -- certainly they did exceeding evil, and were insolent 52 and the Subverted City He also overthrew, 53 so that there covered it that which covered. 54 How many favours of your Lord will you then deny? 55 THIS IS a warning like those warnings of old: 56 There hath approached the approaching Hour. 57 None but God can avert it. 58 Do you then wonder at this announcement? 59 Will you laugh at it rather than weep? 60 And ye are behaving proudly. 61 But fall ye down in prostration to Allah, and adore (Him)! ۩ 62
