Chapter 53, Page 527, Juz 27

33. (O Prophet), did you see him who turned away (from the Path of Allah), 34. who gave a little, and then stopped? 35. Does he have any knowledge of the world beyond the ken of sense-perception, and therefore, clearly sees (the Truth)? 36. Has he not been informed of what is in the Scrolls of Moses, 37. and of Abraham, who lived up to the trust? 38. “That no bearer of a burden shall bear the burden of another, 39. and that man shall have nothing but what he has striven for, 40. and that (the result of) his striving shall soon be seen, 41. and that he shall then be fully recompensed, 42. and that the final end is with your Lord, 43. and that He it is Who causes people to laugh and to cry, 44. and that He it is Who causes death and grants life, 45. and He it is Who created the two kinds, the male and the female, 46. from a drop of sperm when it was emitted, 47. and that it is for Him to grant the second life, 48. that He it is Who bestowed wealth and riches, 49. that He is the Lord of Sirius, 50. that He it is Who destroyed the ancient 'Ad, 51. and Thamud, leaving no trace of them, 52. and that He it is Who destroyed the people of Noah before for they were much given to iniquity and transgression. 53. And He brought perdition upon the subverted cities 54. and caused them to be covered with that which He covered them with. 55. So, which of your Lord's bounties will you doubt?” 56. This is a warning among the warnings of yore. 57. The imminent Hour has drawn near, 58. and none but Allah can avert it. 59. Will you, then, wonder at this? 60. Will you laugh at it rather than weep? 61. Will you occupy yourselves simply in merriment? 62. Prostrate yourselves before Allah, and serve Him.
