Have you [Prophet] considered the man who turned away, 33 who at first gave a little, then later held back? 34 Does he have knowledge of the hidden, so he can foresee? 35 Or, has he not been informed of what is in the scriptures of Musa? 36 And Abraham who paid his debt: 37 That no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another 38 and that nought shall be accounted unto man but what he is striving for; 39 and that in time [the nature of] all his striving will be shown [to him in its true light,] 40 And only then will he receive his recompense in full; 41 To your Lord will all things eventually return. 42 It is He who causes laughter and weeping. 43 that it is He who causes death and gives life; 44 and He it is Who created the two kinds, the male and the female, 45 from a discharged living germ 46 That He hath promised a Second Creation (Raising of the Dead); 47 and that it is He who gives wealth and riches, 48 and that He is the Lord of (the star) Sirius, 49 and that it is He who destroyed the ancient [tribes of] Ad 50 And Thamud (people). He spared none of them. 51 and that He it is Who destroyed the people of Noah before for they were much given to iniquity and transgression. 52 He plunged the villages 53 Then covered them with that which covered them. 54 So which then of your Lord's favors do you dispute? 55 This is a (Prophet) like that of the ancient warners (Prophets). 56 The Day of Judgment is drawing nearer. 57 [although] none but God can unveil it.... 58 At this discourse then marvel ye? 59 And laugh and not weep, 60 Wasting your time in vanities? 61 So prostrate yourselves before Allah and worship. ۩ 62
