On what do you base your judgment [of right and wrong]? 36 Or do you have a scripture in which you learn 37 that you will be granted whatever you choose? 38 Do you have a covenant with Us which allows you to do whatever you want until the Day of Judgment? 39 Ask them (O Muhammad) which of them will vouch for that! 40 Or do they have partners?

Verily, My Plan is strong. 45 Or, do you ask them for a wage, so that they are burdened with debt? 46 Or do they have any knowledge of the Unseen which they are now writing down? 47 So bear with patience until the Judgement of your Lord comes, and do not belike the man in the fish (i.e., Jonah) who called out, choking with grief: 48 Had it not been for a favour from his Lord he would have been cast blame-worthy on a barren plain. 49 Then his Lord chose him, and He made him of the good. 50 The unbelievers wellnigh strike thee down with their glances, when they hear the Reminder, and they say, 'Surely he is a man possessed!' 51 While it is naught but an admonition unto the worlds. 52
