Hast thou considered him who turns his back 33 Gives a little, then hardens (his heart)? 34 Hath he knowledge of the Unseen so that he seeth? 35 Or, has he not been told of that which is in the Scrolls of Moses 36 And of Ibrahim who faithfully fulfilled? 37 That no laden one shall bear another's load, 38 And that man hath only that for which he maketh effort, 39 He will certainly see the result of his labor 40 and that he shall then be fully recompensed, 41 And that to your Lord is the goal- 42 And that it is He (Allah) Who makes (whom He wills) laugh, and makes (whom He wills) weep; 43 And that it is He Who causeth to die and causeth to live. 44 And that He createth the pair, the male and the female. 45 From a drop of semen when emitted; 46 and that upon Him rests the second growth, 47 and that it is He who gives riches and causes to hoard, 48 that He is the Lord of Sirius. 49 That it was He who destroyed the 'Ad of old, 50 And that Thamud! He left not. 51 as well as the people of Noah before them - [since,] verily, they all had been most willful in their evildoing and most overweening 52 And the subverted cities He overthrew. 53 and caused them to be covered with that which He covered them with. 54 About which of the bounties of your Lord can they persistently dispute? 55 This is a warner from the warners of ancient times. 56 The imminent Hour has drawn near, 57 Of it, [from those] besides Allah, there is no remover. 58 Does this statement seem strange to them 59 And you laugh and do not weep 60 Wasting your (precious) lifetime in pastime and amusements (singing, etc.). 61 So fall you down in prostration to Allah, and worship Him (Alone). ۩ 62
