My payment is only from Allah, and He is, over all things, Witness." 47 Say, "My Lord speaks the Truth. He has the knowledge of the unseen". 48 Say to them, "The Truth has come and will endure. Falsehood has no power to originate any good, nor to reproduce it." 49 Say thou: if ever I go astray, I shall stray only against myself, and if I remain guided it is because of that which my Lord hath revealed unto me. Verily He is Hearing, Nigh. 50 And if you could but see, when they will be terrified with no escape (for them), and they will be seized from a near place. 51 And they shall say: We believe in it. And how shall the attaining (of faith) be possible to them from a distant place? 52 Whereas they disbelieved therein afore, and conjectured about the unseen from a place so afar. 53 A gulf will exist between them and their desires on the Day of Judgment like the similar people who lived before. They, too, had lived in doubt and uncertainty (about the life hereafter). 54
