So what is [the matter] with those who disbelieve, hastening [from] before you, [O Muhammad], 36 towards thee on the right hand and on the left hand in knots? 37 Does every one of them hope to enter [by this means] a garden of bliss? 38 By no means! For We have created them out of the (base matter) they know! 39 But nay! I swear by the Lord of the Easts and the Wests that We are certainly able 40 to replace them with [people] better than they are; for there is nothing to prevent Us [from doing what We will]. 41 Then leave them alone to plunge and play until they encounter that day of theirs which they are promised, 42 The Day whereon they will issue from their sepulchres in sudden haste as if they were rushing to a goal-post (fixed for them),- 43 their eyes are humbled and they are covered with humiliation. Such is the Day that they were promised. 44
