Have you seen him who turns his back, 33 And gave a little and [then] refrained? 34 Does he possess the knowledge of the Unseen, and therefore he sees? 35 Or, has he not been told of that which is in the Scrolls of Moses 36 And Abraham who paid his debt: 37 That no burdened soul bears another soul’s burden? 38 and that man shall have nothing but what he has striven for, 39 And that his deeds will be seen, 40 Then will he be rewarded with a reward complete; 41 and that the final return is to your Lord, 42 and that it is He alone who causes [you] to laugh and to weep; 43 that it is He who causes death and gives life; 44 And that He createth the pair, the male and the female. 45 from an ejected drop of sperm; 46 and that [therefore] it is within His power to bring about a second life; 47 and that it is He alone who frees from want and causes to possess; 48 And that He is the Lord of the Sirius; 49 That it was He who destroyed the 'Ad of old, 50 And Thamud, and did not leave them, 51 and before them the nation of Noah, they exceeded in evil and were insolent. 52 It is He who turned upside down the people of Lot 53 and covered them with torment. 54 Then which of the favors of your Lord do you doubt? 55 This [Prophet] is a warner like the former warners. 56 The (Judgment) ever approaching draws nigh: 57 None besides Allah can avert it, (or advance it, or delay it). 58 At this discourse then marvel ye? 59 and do you laugh, and do you not weep, 60 While you are indulging in varieties. 61 So prostrate to Allah and worship [Him]. ۩ 62
