۞ And who could be more wicked than he who invents lies about God? and gives the lie to the truth as soon as it has been placed before him? Is not hell the [proper] abode for all who deny the truth? 32 But he who brought the Truth, and those who confirmed it as true, such are the ones who shall be guarded against the chastisement. 33 All that they have ever yearned for awaits them with their Sustainer: such will be the reward of the doers of good. 34 So that Allah may relieve them of their worst deeds, and reward them for the best deeds they had done. 35 Will not Allah defend His slave? Yet they would frighten thee with those beside Him. He whom Allah sendeth astray, for him there is no guide. 36 whereas he whom God guides aright can never be led astray. Is not God almighty, an avenger of evil? 37 If indeed thou ask them who it is that created the heavens and the earth, they would be sure to say, "Allah". Say: "See ye then? the things that ye invoke besides Allah,- can they, if Allah wills some Penalty for me, remove His Penalty?- Or if He wills some Grace for me, can they keep back his Grace?" Say: "Sufficient is Allah for me! In Him trust those who put their trust." 38 Tell them: “My people, continue to work in your position as you will, I too will continue with my work. Soon you shall know 39 upon whom the punishment will come that will degrade him, and who will be overtaken by an everlasting punishment' 40 Indeed, We sent down to you the Book for the people in truth. So whoever is guided - it is for [the benefit of] his soul; and whoever goes astray only goes astray to its detriment. And you are not a manager over them. 41
