And whoever is averse to the Remembrance of the Most Gracious, We appoint a devil upon him, who stays with him. 36 and they bar them from the way, and they think they are guided, 37 But in the end, when he [who has thus sinned] appears before us [on Judgment Day,] he will say [to his other self,] "Would that between me and thee there had been the distance of east and west!" for, evil indeed [has proved] that other self! 38 On that Day it will not profit you in the least [to know] that, since you have sinned [together,] you are now to share your suffering [as well]. 39 What! can you then make the deaf to hear or guide the blind and him who is in clear error? 40 And if We take thee away, We shall surely take vengeance on them. 41 Or if We shew thee that wherewith We threaten them, verily We are going to prevail over them. 42 So hold thou fast to that which is inspired in thee. Lo! thou art on a right path. 43 And lo! it is in truth a Reminder for thee and for thy folk; and ye will be questioned. 44 Inquire of apostles We had sent before you if We appointed gods to be worshipped other than Ar-Rahman. 45
