Have you seen him who turns his back, 33 who at first gave a little, then later held back? 34 Does he possess the knowledge of the Unseen, and therefore he sees? 35 Did not the news reach him, of that which is mentioned in the Books of Moosa? 36 and about Abraham who fulfilled his duty (to God)? 37 That no laden one shall bear another's load, 38 nor can man achieve anything without hard labor. 39 That (the fruit of) his striving will soon come in sight: 40 and that he shall then be fully recompensed, 41 and that the final end is unto thy Lord, 42 And that it is He Who made (you) laugh and made (you) cry? 43 And that it is He Who gave death and gave life? 44 and He it is Who created the two kinds, the male and the female, 45 from an ejected drop of sperm; 46 and on Him depends the life hereafter. 47 and that it is He who gives riches and causes to hoard, 48 And that He (Allah) is the Lord of Sirius (the star which the pagan Arabs used to worship); 49 That it was He who destroyed the 'Ad of old, 50 Thamud, 51 And the people of Nuh before; surely they were most unjust and inordinate; 52 And He destroyed the overthrown cities [of Sodom to which Prophet Lout (Lot) was sent]. 53 So there covered them that which did cover (i.e. torment with stones). 54 About which, then, of thy Sustainer's powers canst thou [still] remain in doubt? 55 He who warns you is one of the warners of old. 56 The Day of Resurrection draws near, 57 None but God can avert it. 58 Do you marvel then at this discourse (the Koran)? 59 and do you laugh, and do you not weep, 60 while you are thoughtless? 61 Prostrate yourselves before God, and worship Him alone! ۩ 62
