(O Prophet), did you see him who turned away (from the Path of Allah), 33 And gives a little and (then) withholds. 34 Or, does he possess knowledge of the Unseen, and can therefore see? 35 Did not the news reach him, of that which is mentioned in the Books of Moosa? 36 And Abraham who paid his debt: 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 will soon be scrutinised? 40 Thereafter he shall be recompensed therefor with the fullest recompense. 41 that all things in the end shall return to God; 42 It is He who causes laughter and weeping. 43 It is He who causes death and gives life. 44 And that He (Allah) creates the pairs, male and female, 45 From a drop (of seed) when it is poured forth; 46 And that only upon Him is the next revival? 47 that it is He who gives wealth and possessions; 48 That He is the Lord of Sirius; 49 It was He who totally destroyed the former 'Ad 50 And (the tribe of) Thamud He spared not; 51 And before them, the people of Nooh? Indeed they were more unjust and more rebellious than these! 52 just as He thrust into perdition those cities that were overthrown 53 So that (ruins unknown) have covered them up. 54 So O listener! Which favour of your Lord will you doubt? 55 He who warns you is one of the warners of old. 56 The approaching event has come near. 57 There shall be none besides Allah to remove it. 58 So are you surprised at this fact? 59 And will ye laugh and not weep,- 60 Indulging in pleasantries? 61 Prostrate yourselves before Allah, and serve Him. ۩ 62
