PART 25

[41:47]

Unto Him is referred (all) knowledge of the Hour. And no fruits burst forth from their sheaths, and no female carrieth or bringeth forth but with His knowledge. And on the day when He calleth unto them: Where are now My partners ? they will say: We confess unto Thee, not one of us is a witness (for them).

[41:48]

And those to whom they used to cry of old have failed them, and they perceive they have no place of refuge.

[41:49]

Man tireth not of praying for good, and if ill toucheth him, then he is disheartened, desperate.

[41:50]

And verily, if We cause him to taste mercy after some hurt that hath touched him, he will say: This is my own; and I deem not that the Hour will ever rise, and if I am brought back to my Lord, I surely shall be better off with Him - But We verily shall tell those who disbelieve (all) that they did, and We verily shall make them taste hard punishment.

[41:51]

When We show favour unto man, he withdraweth and turneth aside, but when ill toucheth him then he aboundeth in prayer.

[41:52]

Bethink you: If it is from Allah and ye reject it - Who is further astray than one who is at open feud (with Allah) ?

[41:53]

We shall show them Our portents on the horizons and within themselves until it will be manifest unto them that it is the Truth. Doth not thy Lord suffice, since He is Witness over all things ?

[41:54]

How! Are they still in doubt about the meeting with their Lord ? Lo! Is not He surrounding all things ?
