Have you [Prophet] considered the man who turned away, 33 who gave a little, and then stopped? 34 Hath he knowledge of the Unseen so that he seeth? 35 Has he not been informed of what is in the Scrolls of Moses, 36 and of Abraham, who lived up to the trust? 37 That no laden one shall bear another's load, 38 And that for man shall be naught save that wherefor he endeavoureth. 39 And that his deeds will be seen, 40 Then shall he be rewarded for it with the fullest reward- 41 That to thy Lord is the final Goal; 42 and that it is He who makes to laugh, and that makes to weep, 43 and that it is He alone who deals death and grants life; 44 And that it is He Who has created the two pairs, male and female? 45 from a discharged living germ 46 and that upon Him rests the second growth, 47 It is He who grants people temporary and durable wealth. 48 that He is the Lord of Sirius, 49 And that He destroyed the former 'A-ad. 50 And Thamud, and did not leave them, 51 And also the people of Nuh aforetime. Verily they were even greater wrong-doers and more contumacious. 52 And He destroyed the overthrown cities [of Sodom to which Prophet Lout (Lot) was sent]. 53 and then covered them from sight forever. 54 Then which of the favors of your Lord do you doubt? 55 This is a warner, of the warners of old. 56 The approaching event has come near. 57 None besides Allah can avert it, (or advance it, or delay it). 58 Will you, then, wonder at this? 59 Or do you laugh, and do you not weep 60 And ye are behaving proudly. 61 So fall you down in prostration to Allah, and worship Him (Alone). ۩ 62
