(Muhammad), have you ever seen the one who has turned away (from guidance), 33 who at first gave a little, then later held back? 34 Or, does he possess knowledge of the Unseen, and can therefore see? 35 Has he not heard what is contained in the Book of Moses, 36 And [of] Abraham, who fulfilled [his obligations] - 37 That no burdened person (with sins) shall bear the burden (sins) of another. 38 and that everyone shall have in his account only that which he worked for, 39 That (the fruit of) his striving will soon come in sight: 40 then he shall be recompensed for it with the fullest recompense, 41 and that the final end is unto thy Lord, 42 And that it is He who makes [one] laugh and weep 43 And that He it is Who giveth death and giveth life; 44 and He it is Who created the two kinds, the male and the female, 45 From seed when it is emitted. 46 and that it is for Him to grant the second life, 47 That it is He Who giveth wealth and satisfaction; 48 that He is the Lord of Sirius, 49 It was He who totally destroyed the former 'Ad 50 And destroyed the tribe of Thamud, not sparing anyone? 51 And before them, the people of Noah, for that they were (all) most unjust and most insolent transgressors, 52 He plunged the villages 53 so that there covered it that which covered. 54 Which of your Lord's benefits will you then dispute about? 55 This is a warner from the warners of ancient times. 56 What is to come is imminent. 57 [although] none but God can unveil it.... 58 At this discourse then marvel ye? 59 And you laugh, and do not weep! 60 And ye are behaving proudly. 61 Prostrate yourselves before Allah, and serve Him. ۩ 62
