If anyone withdraws himself from remembrance of (Allah) Most Gracious, We appoint for him an evil one, to be an intimate companion to him. 36 And verily they hinder them from the way, whilst they deem that they are rightly guided. 37 Until, when he comes to Us [at Judgement], he says [to his companion], "Oh, I wish there was between me and you the distance between the east and west - how wretched a companion." 38 It shall not profit you today, since you did evil, that you are partners in the chastisement. 39 Can you make the deaf to hear, or show the blind, and those lost in clear error, the way? 40 Even if We take you away from the world, We shall surely take vengeance on them 41 Or whether [or not] We show you that which We have promised them, indeed, We are Perfect in Ability. 42 So hold you (O Muhammad SAW) fast to that which is inspired in you. Verily, 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 And question thou our messengers whom We sent before thee; did We appoint any deities other than (Allah) Most Gracious, to be worshipped? 45
