۞ Even if every soul that has sinned possessed whatever is on the earth, it would surely offer it to ransom itself, and feel repentant on seeing the punishment. Yet the sentence would be passed with justice, and not one will be wronged. 54 Oh, verily, unto God belongs all that is in the heavens and on earth! Oh, verily, God's promise always comes true - but most of them know it not! 55 He gives life and causes death, and to Him you shall be brought back. 56 People, good advice has come to you from your Lord a (spiritual) cure, a guide and a mercy for the believers. 57 Say thou: in the grace of Allah and in His mercy - therein let them therefore rejoice: far better it is than that which they amass. 58 Say: 'Have you considered the provision God has sent down for you, and you have made some of it unlawful, and some lawful?' Say: 'Has God given you leave, or do you forge against God?' 59 And what do they, who fabricate lies against Allah, assume will be their state on the Day of Resurrection? Indeed Allah is Most Munificent upon mankind, but most people are not thankful. 60
