Have you seen him who turns his back, 33 who gave a little, and then stopped? 34 Has he the knowledge of the unseen so that he can see? 35 Or has he not been told of what is in the scrolls of Moses, 36 And of Ibrahim who faithfully fulfilled? 37 To wit, that a burthened soul shall not bear the burthen of another. 38 And that there is not for man except that [good] for which he strives 39 and that his work is surely seen 40 whereupon he shall be requited for it with the fullest requital; 41 That to thy Lord is the final Goal; 42 And that it is He Who made (you) laugh and made (you) cry? 43 and that it is He who causes to die, and causes to live 44 and He it is Who created the two kinds, the male and the female, 45 from an ejected drop of sperm; 46 and that it is for Him to grant the second life, 47 that He it is Who bestowed wealth and riches, 48 that He is the Lord of Sirius, 49 And that He destroyed the former (tribe of) A'ad, 50 and Thamud, leaving no trace [of them,] 51 Like the people of Noah before them, who were surely oppressors and rebellious; 52 And Al-Mu'tafikah He destroyed 53 Then covered them with that which covered them. 54 About which of the bounties of your Lord can they persistently dispute? 55 He (Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him) is a Herald of Warning, like the former Heralds of Warning. 56 that [Last Hour] which is so near draws ever nearer, 57 None but God can avert it. 58 Then at this statement do you wonder? 59 Will you laugh at it rather than weep? 60 Wasting your time in vanities? 61 Rather, prostrate to Allah and worship Him. ۩ 62
