(O Prophet), did you see him who turned away (from the Path of Allah), 33 who at first gave a little, then later held back? 34 Does he possess the knowledge of the Unseen, and therefore he sees? 35 Nay, is he not acquainted with what is in the Books of Moses- 36 And of Ibrahim who faithfully fulfilled? 37 That no one who carries a burden bears another's load; 38 That a man receives but only that for which he strives; 39 And that his effort is going to be seen - 40 Then he will be fully repaid for it? 41 And that unto thy Lord is the goal. 42 that it is He who brings laughter and tears; 43 And He who ordains death and life; 44 and that He Himself created the two sexes: male and female, 45 From seed when it is emitted. 46 And that on Him is the bringing forth a second time; 47 And that He it is Who enriches and gives to hold; 48 and that He is the Lord of (the star) Sirius, 49 It was He who totally destroyed the former 'Ad 50 and Thamud, leaving no trace of them, 51 and that He it is Who destroyed the people of Noah before for they were much given to iniquity and transgression. 52 And He destroyed the Overthrown Cities (of Sodom and Gomorrah). 53 and covered them with torment. 54 About which of the bounties of your Lord can they persistently dispute? 55 He who warns you is one of the warners of old. 56 The Imminent is near at hand; 57 apart from God none can disclose it. 58 Do you then wonder at this recital (the Quran)? 59 Will you laugh at it rather than weep? 60 While ye amuse yourselves? 61 So make obeisance to Allah and serve (Him). ۩ 62
