Seest thou one who turns back, 33 And gave a little, then was grudging? 34 Has he knowledge of the unseen, so that he sees? 35 Has he not been informed of what is in the Scrolls of Moses, 36 And of Abraham who fulfilled his engagements?- 37 “That no bearer of a burden shall bear the burden of another, 38 nor can man achieve anything without hard labor. 39 and that his work is surely seen 40 Then he will be recompensed for it with the fullest recompense 41 And that the end is only towards your Lord? 42 It is He who causes laughter and weeping. 43 that it is He who causes death and gives life; 44 And that He (Allah) creates the pairs, male and female, 45 from a drop of sperm when it was emitted, 46 And that upon Him is another bringing forth. 47 And that it is He Who has given wealth and contentment? 48 It is He who is the Lord of Sirius. 49 That it was He who destroyed the 'Ad of old, 50 and Thamud tribes, 51 and the people of Noah before -- certainly they did exceeding evil, and were insolent 52 And the overturned towns He hurled down 53 So they were covered with whatever covered them? 54 About which, then, of thy Sustainer's powers canst thou [still] remain in doubt? 55 This is a warner of the warners of old. 56 The threatened Hour is nigh. 57 None except Allah can avert it. 58 Do you then wonder at this announcement? 59 Will you laugh at it rather than weep? 60 And you are lost in play! 61 So fall you down in prostration to Allah, and worship Him (Alone). ۩ 62
