HAST THOU, then, ever considered him who turns away [from remembering Us, and cares for no more than the life of this world,] 33 Gives a little, then hardens (his heart)? 34 Has he knowledge of the unseen, so that he sees? 35 Has he not been informed of what is in the Scrolls of Moses, 36 And of Ibrahim who faithfully fulfilled? 37 That no bearer of burden shall bear the burden of another- 38 and that man shall have only that for which he strives; 39 and that in time [the nature of] all his striving will be shown [to him in its true light,] 40 then he shall be recompensed for it with the fullest recompense, 41 That to thy Lord is the final Goal; 42 That it is He who makes you happy and morose, 43 That it is He Who granteth Death and Life; 44 and that He Himself created the two kinds, male and female, 45 From a seed when lodged (in its place); 46 and that He will bring about the Second Creation; 47 and that it is He alone who frees from want and causes to possess; 48 That He is the Lord of Sirius; 49 and that it is He who destroyed the ancient [tribes of] Ad 50 And that Thamud! He left not. 51 And the people of Nuh before; surely they were most unjust and inordinate; 52 And He brought perdition upon the subverted cities 53 and caused them to be covered with that which He covered them with. 54 Concerning which then, of the bounties of thy Lord, canst thou dispute? 55 This is a warning among the warnings of yore. 56 There hath approached the approaching Hour. 57 There shall be none besides Allah to remove it. 58 Will you, then, wonder at this? 59 And will ye laugh and not weep,- 60 While you are indulging in varieties. 61 Prostrate yourselves before Allah, and serve Him. ۩ 62
