Hast thou considered him who turns his back 33 Who gives but little, and is niggardly? 34 Has he knowledge of the unseen, so that he sees? 35 Or hath he not had news of what is in the books of Moses 36 and about Abraham who fulfilled his duty (to God)? 37 Certainly no one will bear the responsibility of the sins of another, 38 And that man hath only that for which he maketh effort, 39 And that his effort will be seen. 40 then, he shall be recompensed for it in full repayment 41 To your Lord will all things eventually return. 42 that it is He who causes to laugh and causes to weep. 43 And He who ordains death and life; 44 and He it is Who created the two kinds, the male and the female, 45 from a discharged living germ 46 And that only upon Him is the next revival? 47 And that He it is Who enriches and gives to hold; 48 that He is the Lord of Sirius. 49 and that He destroyed Ad, the ancient, 50 and Thamood, and He did not spare them, 51 and before them the people of Noah who were even more unjust and insolent; 52 And He destroyed the Overthrown Cities (of Sodom and Gomorrah). 53 so that there came upon them that which came. 54 Then which of thy Lord's bounties disputest thou? 55 This is a warning just like those of former times. 56 The approaching event has come near. 57 None but God can avert it. 58 Then at this statement do you wonder? 59 And do you laugh instead of weeping, 60 While you are indulging in varieties. 61 Prostrate yourselves before Allah, and serve Him. ۩ 62
