Seest thou one who turns back, 33 and gives so little [of himself for the good of his soul,] and so grudgingly? 34 Has he the knowledge of the unseen so that he can see? 35 Or, has he not been told of that which is in the Scrolls of Moses 36 and of Abraham, who lived up to the trust? 37 that no bearer of burdens shall be made to bear another's burden; 38 and that a man shall have to his account only as he has laboured, 39 And that his effort is going to be seen - 40 and will be fully recompensed for his deeds. 41 and that the final end is with your Lord, 42 and that it is He alone who causes [you] to laugh and to weep; 43 and that He it is Who causes death and grants life, 44 and that it is He who created pairs, the male and the female, 45 From a seed when lodged (in its place); 46 And that only upon Him is the next revival? 47 It is He who grants people temporary and durable wealth. 48 And that He it is Who is the Lord of Sirius; 49 And that He destroyed the first [people of] 'Aad 50 And Thamud, and did not leave them, 51 Like the people of Noah before them, who were surely oppressors and rebellious; 52 just as He thrust into perdition those cities that were overthrown 53 And covered them by that which He covered. 54 Then which of the favors of your Lord do you doubt? 55 This is a warner, of the warners of old. 56 The imminent Hour has drawn near, 57 None besides Allah can avert it, (or advance it, or delay it). 58 Are you astonished at this news, 59 And laugh and not weep? 60 while you are thoughtless? 61 Prostrate yourselves before God, and worship Him alone! ۩ 62
