Have you seen him who turns his back, 33 And gave a little, then stopped (giving)? 34 Does he possess the knowledge of the unseen, thus, he sees (all things)? 35 Or is he not informed with what is in the Pages (Scripture) of Musa (Moses), 36 And [of] Abraham, who fulfilled [his obligations] - 37 That no bearer of burden shall bear the burden of another- 38 That a man receives but only that for which he strives; 39 That his endeavours will be judged, 40 Thereafter he shall be recompensed therefor with the fullest recompense. 41 and that the final end is with your Lord, 42 It is He who causes laughter and weeping. 43 and that it is He alone who deals death and grants life; 44 and that it is He who created pairs, the male and the female, 45 from a drop of sperm when it was emitted, 46 and on Him depends the life hereafter. 47 and that it is He who gives riches and causes to hoard, 48 That He is the Lord of Sirius; 49 and that He destroyed Ad, the ancient, 50 And destroyed the tribe of Thamud, not sparing anyone? 51 And the people of Nuh before; surely they were most unjust and inordinate; 52 And Al-Mu'tafikah He destroyed 53 Then covered them with that which covered them. 54 How many favours of your Lord will you then deny? 55 He (Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him) is a Herald of Warning, like the former Heralds of Warning. 56 The Imminent is near at hand; 57 None but God can avert it. 58 Do you, perchance, find this tiding strange? 59 and do they laugh instead of weeping, 60 While you are indulging in varieties. 61 Therefore prostrate for Allah, and worship Him.
