Nay! By the moon 32 And by the Night as it retreateth, 33 by the brightening dawn, 34 This is but one of the mighty (portents), 35 A warning for people -- 36 To any of you that chooses to press forward, or to follow behind;- 37 Every soul is a pledge for its own deeds; 38 Except those on the Right, (i.e. the pious true believers of Islamic Monotheism); 39 who shall be in the Gardens, and shall ask 40 and will ask of the criminals, 41 What hath brought you to this burning? 42 They will say, "We were not of those who prayed, 43 and we did not feed the poor, 44 We used to wade (in vain dispute) with (all) waders, 45 "And we used to belie the Day of Recompense 46 "Until there came to us (the Hour) that is certain." 47 So no intercession will avail them. 48 Why then do they turn away from the admonition 49 As if they were affrighted asses, 50 Fleeing from a hunter, or a lion, or a beast of prey. 51 Yea, everyone of them claims that he [himself] ought to have been given revelations unfolded! 52 No! They do not fear the Hereafter -- 53 There is no doubt that the Quran is a guide. 54 Let any who will, keep it in remembrance! 55 But they will not remember except as God wills: He is worthy to be feared, and He is worthy of forgiving 56
