In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
62. "But he did lead astray a great multitude of you. Did ye not, then,
understand?
63. "This is the Hell of which ye were (repeatedly) warned!
64. "Embrace ye the (fire) this Day, for that ye (persistently) rejected
(Truth)."
65. That Day shall We set a seal on their mouths. But their hands will speak to
us, and their feet bear witness, to all that they did.
66. If it had been our Will, We could surely have blotted out their eyes; then
should they have run about groping for the Path, but how could they have seen?
67. And if it had been Our Will, We could have transformed them (to remain) in
their places; then should they have been unable to move about, nor could they
have returned (after error).
68. If We grant long life to any, We cause him to be reversed in nature: Will
they not then understand?
69. We have not instructed the (Prophet) in Poetry, nor is it meet for him: this
is no less than a Message and a Qur'an making things clear:
70. That it may give admonition to any (who are) alive, and that the charge may
be proved against those who reject (Truth).
71. See they not that it is We Who have created for them - among the things
which Our hands have fashioned - cattle, which are under their dominion?-
72. And that We have subjected them to their (use)? of them some do carry them
and some they eat:
73. And they have (other) profits from them (besides), and they get (milk) to
drink. Will they not then be grateful?
74. Yet they take (for worship) gods other than Allah, (hoping) that they might
be helped!
75. They have not the power to help them: but they will be brought up (before
Our Judgment-seat) as a troop (to be condemned).
76. Let not their speech, then, grieve thee. Verily We know what they hide as
well as what they disclose.
77. Doth not man see that it is We Who created him from sperm? yet behold! he
(stands forth) as an open adversary!
78. And he makes comparisons for Us, and forgets his own (origin and) Creation:
He says, "Who can give life to (dry) bones and decomposed ones (at that)?"
79. Say, "He will give them life Who created them for the first time! for He is
Well-versed in every kind of creation!-
80. "The same Who produces for you fire out of the green tree, when behold! ye
kindle therewith (your own fires)!
81. "Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like
thereof?" - Yea, indeed! for He is the Creator Supreme, of skill and knowledge
(infinite)!
82. Verily, when He intends a thing, His Command is, "be", and it is!
83. So glory to Him in Whose hands is the dominion of all things: and to Him
will ye be all brought back.
