We shall attach to him who goes blind to the remembrance of Ar-Rahman a devil as companion, -- 36 and they bar them from the Way, though they themselves think that they are guided. 37 To the extent that when the disbeliever will be brought to Us, he will say to his devil, “Alas – if only there was the distance* of east and west, between you and me!” – so what an evil companion** he is! (* Had I not listened to you. **They will be bound together in chains.) 38 And never will it benefit you that Day, when you have wronged, that you are [all] sharing in the punishment. 39 Then will you make the deaf hear, [O Muhammad], or guide the blind or he who is in clear error? 40 We shall revenge them either after your death 41 and whether We show thee [or do not show thee in this world] the fulfillment of what We have promised them - verily, We have full power over them! 42 So hold thou fast to that which is inspired in thee. Lo! thou art on a right path. 43 Verily it is a great source of eminence for you and your people, and soon you will be called to account concerning that. 44 And ask (O Muhammad SAW) those of Our Messengers whom We sent before you: "Did We ever appoint aliha (gods) to be worshipped besides the Most Beneficent (Allah)?" 45
