Nay; I swear by the moon, 32 by the retreating night, 33 By the morning when it brighteneth. 34 Lo! this is one of the greatest (portents) 35 a warning to mortal man 36 to whoever among you desires to go forward, or lag behind. 37 Every soul, for what it has earned, will be retained 38 save the People of the Right Hand 39 Sitting in the gardens, asking 40 about the guilty ones: 41 "What was it that brought you to Hell?" 42 They will reply: 'We were not among those who prayed 43 and we did not feed the poor; 44 and we were wont to indulge in sinning together with all [the others] who indulged in it; 45 "And we used to belie the Day of Recompense 46 Until there came to us the certainty." 47 The mediation of no mediators will avail them then. 48 Why then do they turn away from the admonition 49 As if they were asses taking fright 50 fleeing from a lion? 51 No indeed; each one of them desires that open letters be sent to each of them. 52 No indeed; but they do not fear the Hereafter. 53 Nay, verily, this is an admonition 54 So whosoever will (let him read it), and receive admonition (from it)! 55 But none will remember, unless Allah wills, He is the Owner of fear, the Owner of forgiveness. 56
