Observedest thou him who turned away? 33 and grudgingly spends very little for the cause of God? 34 Is with him the knowledge of the unseen so that he sees? 35 Nay, is he not acquainted with what is in the Books of Moses- 36 And of Ibrahim, who was most obedient? 37 “That no bearer of a burden shall bear the burden of another, 38 and that a man shall have to his account only as he has laboured, 39 He will certainly see the result of his labor 40 Then will he be rewarded with a reward complete; 41 and that the final end is with your Lord, 42 And that it is He Who causeth to laugh and causeth 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 drop of semen when emitted; 46 And that only upon Him is the next revival? 47 and that it is He alone who frees from want and causes to possess; 48 And that He (Allah) is the Lord of Sirius (the star which the pagan Arabs used to worship); 49 And that He destroyed the first [people of] 'Aad 50 And that Thamud! He left not. 51 as well as the people of Noah before them - [since,] verily, they all had been most willful in their evildoing and most overweening 52 And He destroyed the overthrown cities [of Sodom to which Prophet Lout (Lot) was sent]. 53 and covered them with torment. 54 Which of your Lord's benefits will you then dispute about? 55 This is a warner of the warners of old. 56 The imminent Hour has drawn near, 57 None beside Allah can disclose it. 58 Then at this statement do you wonder? 59 Will you laugh at it rather than weep? 60 Wasting your time in vanities? 61 Rather prostrate yourselves before Allah and serve Him. ۩ 62
