And We created not the heaven and the earth and all that is
between them without purpose! That is the consideration of those who
disbelieve! Then woe to those who disbelieve (in Islâmic Monotheism) from the
Fire! (27) Shall We treat those who believe (in the Oneness of Allâh —
Islâmic Monotheism) and do righteous good deeds, as Mufsidûn (those who
associate partners in worship with Allâh and commit crimes) on earth? Or shall
We treat the Muttaqûn (pious - see V.2:2), as the Fujjâr (criminals, disbelievers, the
wicked)? (28) (This is) a Book (the Qur'ân) which We have sent down to you,

bestow upon me a kingdom such as shall not belong to any other after me:
Verily, You are the Bestower." (35) So, We subjected to him the wind, it blew
gently his order whithersoever he willed, (36) And also the Shayâtin
(devils) from the jinn (including) every kind of builder and diver, (37) And also others bound
in fetters. (38) [Allâh said to Sulaimân (Solomon)]: "This is Our gift, so
spend you or withhold, no account will be asked (of you)." (39) And verily, for him
