And he whose sight is dim to the remembrance of the Beneficent, We assign unto him a devil who becometh his comrade; 36 and they bar them from the way, and they think they are guided, 37 Until when he comes before Us he will say (to the devil): "Would to God there was a distance of the East and West between you and me, for you were an evil companion!" 38 Because of the harm you did, it would be of no benefit to you today, you are partners in the punishment. 39 Canst thou (Muhammad) make the deaf to hear, or canst thou guide the blind or him who is in error manifest? 40 Whether We take thee away, We shall take vengeance upon them, 41 or We show thee a part of that We promised them, surely We have power over them. 42 So hold fast to what has been revealed to you. You are truly on the right path. 43 And most surely it is a reminder for you and your people, and you shall soon be questioned. 44 And ask those We sent before you of Our messengers; have We made besides the Most Merciful deities to be worshipped? 45
