16. And those who dispute concerning ALLAH after HIS call has been responded to
- their contention is null and void in the sight of their Lord; and on them
will fall God's wrath and for them will be a severe punishment.
17. ALLAH is HE Who has sent down the Book with truth and also the Balance. And
what will make thee know that the Hour may be nigh ?
18. Those who believe not therein seek to hasten it; but those who believe are
fearful of it, and know that it is bound to come. Beware ! those who dispute
concerning the Hour are in error, far gone.
19. ALLAH is Benignant to HIS servants. HE provides for whom HE pleases. And HE
is the Powerful, the Mighty.
20. Whoso desires the harvest of the Hereafter, WE give him increase in his
harvest; and whoso desires the harvest of this world, WE give him his portion
thereof, but in the hereafter he will have no share.
21. Have they such associates of ALLAH as have made lawful for them in religion
that which ALLAH has not allowed ? And but for Our word about the final
judgment, the matter would have been decided by now between them. And, surely,
the wrongdoers will have a grievous punishment.
22. Thou wilt see the wrongdoers in fear on account of that which they have
earned, and it is sure to befall them. But those who believe and do good works
will be in meadows of the Gardens. They shall have with their Lord whatever
they will desire. That is the great bounty of ALLAH. |
