[30:51]
And if We sent a wind
and they beheld it yellow, they verily would still continue in their disbelief.
[30:52]
For verily thou (Muhammad)
canst not make the dead to hear, nor canst thou make the deaf to hear the call
when they have turned to flee.
[30:53]
Nor canst thou guide the blind out of their
error. Thou canst make none to hear save those who believe in Our revelations so that they surrender (unto Him).
[30:54]
Allah is He Who shaped you out of weakness, then
appointed after weakness strength, then, after strength, appointed weakness and
grey hair. He createth what He will. He is the Knower, the Mighty.
[30:55]
And on the day when the Hour riseth the guilty
will vow that they did tarry but an hour - thus were they ever deceived.
[30:56]
But those to whom knowledge and faith are given
will say: The truth is, ye have tarried, by Allah’s
decree, until the Day of Resurrection. This is the Day of Resurrection, but ye
used not to know.
[30:57]
In that day their excuses will not profit those
who did injustice, nor will they be allowed to make amends.
[30:58]
Verily We have coined
for mankind in this Qur’an all kinds of similitudes; and indeed if thou camest
unto them with a miracle, those who disbelieve would verily exclaim: Ye are but
tricksters!
[30:59]
Thus doth Allah seal the hearts of those who
know not.
[30:60]
So have patience (O Muhammad)! Allah’s promise
is the very truth, and let not those who have no certainty make thee impatient.
