Verily, for the Muttaqun (pious and righteous persons - see V. 2:2) are Gardens of delight (Paradise) with their Lord. 34 Shall We equate the Muslims to the guilty? 35 What ails you? How ill you judge! 36 Is there a Book for you, from which you read? 37 That therein is yours that which ye may choose? 38 Or do you have oaths [binding] upon Us, extending until the Day of Resurrection, that indeed for you is whatever you judge? 39 Ask them which of them will vouch for that, 40 Or do they have associates? Then let them bring their associates, if they speak truly. 41 On the Day when the truth shall be laid bare, they will be called upon to prostrate themselves, but they will not be able to do so. 42 downcast will be their eyes, with ignominy overwhelming them - seeing that they had been called upon [in vain] to prostrate themselves [before Him] while they were yet sound [and alive]. 43 So leave Me, (O Prophet), to deal with him who gives the lie to this Discourse. We shall draw them little by little (to their undoing) in a way that they will not know. 44 And I will give them time. Indeed, My plan is firm. 45 Or do you ask of them a payment, so they are by debt burdened down? 46 Or have they [knowledge of] the unseen, so they write [it] down? 47 Therefore wait for your Lord's command, and do not be like the one of the fish; who cried out when he was distraught. 48 Had not grace from his Lord reached him, he had surely been cast into the wilderness in a plight. 49 But his Lord chose him for His own and made him one of the righteous. 50 And the Unbelievers would almost trip thee up with their eyes when they hear the Message; and they say: "Surely he is possessed!" 51 [Be patient:] for this is nought else but a reminder [from God] to all mankind. 52
