| 31. O children of Adam ! take your adornment at every time and place of worship, and eat and drink, but be not immoderate; surely, HE does not love those who are immoderate. 32. Say, `Who has forbidden the adornment of ALLAH which HE has produced for HIS servants and the good things of HIS providing ?' Say, `They are for the believers in the present life and will be exclusively for them on the Day of Resurrection.' Thus do WE explain the Signs for a people who have knowledge. 33. Say, `My Lord has only forbidden indecencies, open or secret and sin and wrongful transgression and that you associate with ALLAH that for which HE has sent down no authority, and that you say of ALLAH what you know not.' 34. And for every people there is a term, and when their term is come, they cannot remain behind a single moment, nor can they get ahead of it. 35. O children of Adam, If Messengers come to you from among yourselves, rehearsing MY Signs unto you, then whoso shall fear God and do good deeds, on them shall come no fear nor shall they grieve. 36. But those who reject OUR Signs and turn away from them with disdain, - these are the inmates of the Fire; they shall abide therein. 37. Who is, then, more unjust than he who forges a lie against ALLAH or gives the lie to HIS Signs ? It is these who shall have their lot as ordained till when OUR Messengers shall visit them to take away their souls, they shall say, `Where is that which you used to call upon besides ALLAH ?' they will answer, `We cannot find them;' and they will bear witness against themselves that they were disbelievers. |
