Whoso blinds himself to the Remembrance of the All-merciful, to him We assign a Satan for comrade; 36 And lo! they surely turn them from the way of Allah, and yet they deem that they are rightly guided; 37 Till, when he cometh unto Us, he saith (unto his comrade): Ah, would that between me and thee there were the distance of the two horizons - an evil comrade! 38 They will be told on the Day of Judgment, "Regret will never be of any benefit to you. You have done injustice to your souls and you will share the torment". 39 Then will you make the deaf hear, [O Muhammad], or guide the blind or he who is in clear error? 40 But whether We do [or do not] take thee away [ere thy message prevails] - verily, We shall inflict Our retribution on them; 41 Or show you what We have promised them – We therefore have complete control over them. 42 So adhere to that which is revealed to you. Indeed, you are on a straight path. 43 Surely it is a Reminder to thee and to thy people; and assuredly you will be questioned. 44 Inquire of apostles We had sent before you if We appointed gods to be worshipped other than Ar-Rahman. 45
