۞ But who does greater evil than he who lies against God and cries lies to the very truth, when it comes to him? Is there not in Gehenna a lodging for the unbelievers? 32 He who brings the truth and verifies it, -- such are the people who are God-fearing. 33 They will receive whatever they want from their Lord. Thus is the reward of the righteous ones. 34 That God may absolve them of their sins and reward them for the best that they had done. 35 Is not God sufficient for His devotee? Still they frighten you with others apart from Him. Whoever God allows to go astray has none to show him the way. 36 But he whom Allah guides, none can lead astray. Is not Allah the Almighty, capable of retribution? 37 And wert thou to ask them: who hath created the heavens and the earth? they will surely say: Allah. Say thou: bethink ye then that those whom ye call upon beside Allah, could they if Allah intended some hurt for me, remove His hurt? or if He intended some mercy for me, could they withhold His mercy? Say thou: enough for me is Allah; in Him the trusting put their trust. 38 Say: O my people! Act in your manner. Lo! I (too) am acting. Thus ye will come to know 39 to whom will come a chastisement degrading him, and upon whom lights a lasting chastisement.' 40 Surely, We have sent down to you the Book for mankind with the truth. Whosoever is guided, is guided for himself, and he who goes astray, it is only for his own loss, you (Prophet Muhammad) are not their (compulsory) guardian. 41
