Chapter 53, Page 528, Juz 27

33. Have you seen the one who turned away ˹from Islam,˺ 34. and ˹initially˺ paid a little ˹for his salvation˺, and then stopped? 35. Does he have the knowledge of the unseen so that he sees ˹the Hereafter˺? 36. Or has he not been informed of what is in the Scripture of Moses, 37. and ˹that of˺ Abraham, who ˹perfectly˺ fulfilled ˹his covenant˺? 38. ˹They state˺ that no soul burdened with sin will bear the burden of another, 39. and that each person will only have what they endeavoured towards, 40. and that ˹the outcome of˺ their endeavours will be seen ˹in their record˺, 41. then they will be fully rewarded, 42. and that to your Lord ˹alone˺ is the ultimate return ˹of all things˺. 43. Moreover, He is the One Who brings about joy and sadness. 44. And He is the One Who gives life and causes death. 45. And He created the pairs—males and females— 46. from a sperm-drop when it is emitted. 47. And it is upon Him to bring about re-creation. 48. And He is the One Who enriches and impoverishes. 49. And He alone is the Lord of Sirius. 50. And He destroyed the first ˹people of˺ ’Ȃd, 51. and ˹then˺ Thamûd, sparing no one. 52. And before ˹that He destroyed˺ the people of Noah, who were truly far worse in wrongdoing and transgression. 53. And ˹it was˺ He ˹Who˺ turned the cities ˹of Sodom and Gomorrah˺ upside down. 54. How overwhelming was what covered ˹them˺! 55. Now, which of your Lord’s favours will you dispute? 56. This ˹Prophet˺ is a warner like earlier ones. 57. The approaching ˹Hour˺ has drawn near. 58. None but Allah can disclose it. 59. Do you find this revelation astonishing, 60. laughing ˹at it˺ and not weeping ˹in awe˺, 61. while persisting in heedlessness? 62. Instead, prostrate to Allah and worship ˹Him alone˺!
