So did you observe him who turned away? 33 And gives a little and (then) withholds. 34 Does he have knowledge of the hidden, so he can foresee? 35 Or has he never yet been told of what was [said] in the revelations of Moses, 36 And Abraham who paid his debt: 37 “That no bearer of a burden shall bear the burden of another, 38 That a man receives but only that for which he strives; 39 And that his effort will be seen. 40 Then he will be recompensed for it with the fullest recompense 41 That to thy Lord is the final Goal; 42 That it is He Who granteth Laughter and Tears; 43 that it is He who causes death and gives life; 44 and that it is He who created pairs, the male and the female, 45 of a sperm-drop, when it was cast forth, 46 And that only upon Him is the next revival? 47 that He it is Who bestowed wealth and riches, 48 And that He it is Who is the Lord of Sirius; 49 that He it is Who destroyed the ancient 'Ad, 50 And Thamud - and He did not spare [them] - 51 And the folk of Noah aforetime, Lo! they were more unjust and more rebellious; 52 And He destroyed the overthrown cities [of Sodom to which Prophet Lout (Lot) was sent]. 53 So they were covered with whatever covered them? 54 Then which of thy Lord's bounties disputest thou? 55 He (Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him) is a Herald of Warning, like the former Heralds of Warning. 56 The near event draws nigh. 57 No (soul) but Allah can lay it bare. 58 Do you then find these tidings strange? 59 And you laugh at it and weep not, 60 Wasting your time in vanities? 61 Bow instead in adoration before God and worship Him. ۩ 62
