۞ And who could be more wicked than he who invents lies about God? and gives the lie to the truth as soon as it has been placed before him? Is not hell the [proper] abode for all who deny the truth? 32 And whoso bringeth the truth and believeth therein - Such are the dutiful. 33 They shall have all that they wish for, in the presence of their Lord: such is the reward of those who do good: 34 So that Allah may remit from them the evil of what they did and give them the reward, according to the best of what they used to do. 35 Is God not sufficient (support) for His servants? They frighten you with what they worship besides God. Who can guide one whom God has caused to go astray? 36 And whomsoever Allah guides, for him there will be no misleader. Is not Allah All-Mighty, Possessor of Retribution? 37 If you ask them who created the heavens and the earth, they will surely reply, "God." Say, "Consider those you invoke besides Him: if God wished to harm me, could they undo that harm? Or if God wished to show me mercy, could they withhold that mercy?" Say, "God is sufficient for me. In Him let the faithful put their trust." 38 Say: "O people, act as best you can on your part, I am acting too. You will come to know in time 39 whom the degrading chastisement will visit and upon whom the everlasting chastisement will alight. 40 Surely We have revealed to you the Book with the truth for the sake of men; so whoever follows the right way, it is for his own soul and whoever errs, he errs only to its detriment; and you are not a custodian over them. 41
