(Muhammad), have you ever seen the one who has turned away (from guidance), 33 And gives a little and (then) withholds. 34 Does he have any knowledge of the world beyond the ken of sense-perception, and therefore, clearly sees (the Truth)? 35 Has he not been made acquainted with what was written in the scriptures of Moses? 36 And of Ibrahim, who was most obedient? 37 That no soul laden bears the load of another, 38 And that for man shall be naught save that wherefor he endeavoureth. 39 And that his striving shall soon be seen- 40 and that he shall then be fully recompensed, 41 And that to your Lord is the goal- 42 And that it is He Who causeth to laugh and causeth to weep. 43 and that it is He who makes to die, and that makes to live, 44 That He created pairs, male and female, 45 from a discharged living germ 46 and that upon Him is the second creation 47 And that it is He Who has given wealth and contentment? 48 that He is the Lord of Sirius, 49 And that He destroyed the first [people of] 'Aad 50 And (the tribe of) Thamud He spared 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 overthrown cities did He overthrow, 53 so that there came upon them that which came. 54 Then which of the Graces of your Lord (O man!) will you doubt. 55 He who warns you is one of the warners of old. 56 The threatened Hour is nigh. 57 There is no one to unveil it apart from God. 58 At this discourse then marvel ye? 59 And will you laugh and not weep? 60 indulging in carelessly idle games? 61 So make obeisance to Allah and serve (Him). ۩ 62
