(Muhammad), have you ever seen the one who has turned away (from guidance), 33 And gave a little, then stopped (giving)? 34 Does he possess the knowledge of the unseen, thus, he sees (all things)? 35 Or, has he not been told of that which is in the Scrolls of Moses 36 And (of) Ibrahim who fulfilled (the commandments): 37 To wit, that a burthened soul shall not bear the burthen of another. 38 and that everyone shall have in his account only that which he worked for, 39 And that his effort will soon be scrutinised? 40 and will be fully recompensed for his deeds. 41 And that unto thy Lord is the goal. 42 And that it is He who makes [one] laugh and weep 43 and that He it is Who causes death and grants life, 44 and He it is Who created the two kinds, the male and the female, 45 of a sperm-drop, when it was cast forth, 46 and that upon Him rests the second growth, 47 and that it is He alone who frees from want and causes to possess; 48 And that it is He who is the Lord of Sirius 49 And that it is He (Allah) Who destroyed the former 'Ad (people), 50 And that Thamud! He left not. 51 as well as the people of Noah before them - [since,] verily, they all had been most willful in their evildoing and most overweening 52 It is He who turned upside down the people of Lot 53 So there covered them that which did cover (i.e. torment with stones). 54 On which then of your Lord's signs do you cast doubt? 55 This is a warning among the warnings of yore. 56 The near event draws nigh. 57 Of it, [from those] besides Allah, there is no remover. 58 Are you astonished at this news, 59 Or do you laugh, and do you not weep 60 while you are thoughtless? 61 Therefore prostrate for Allah, and worship Him.
