Follow those who do not ask of you [any] payment, and they are [rightly] guided. ^[21]

And why should I not worship He who created me and to whom you will be returned? ^[22]

Should I take other than Him [false] deities [while], if the Most Merciful intends for me some adversity, their intercession will not avail me at all, nor can they save me? ^[23]

Indeed, I would then be in manifest error. ^[24]

Indeed, I have believed in your Lord, so listen to me." ^[25]

It was said, "Enter Paradise." He said, "I wish my people could know ^[26]

Of how my Lord has forgiven me and placed me among the honored." ^[27]

And We did not send down upon his people after him any soldiers from the heaven, nor would We have done so. ^[28]

It was not but one shout, and immediately they were extinguished. ^[29]

How regretful for the servants. There did not come to them any messenger except that they used to ridicule him. ^[30]

Have they not considered how many generations We destroyed before them - that they to them will not return? ^[31]

And indeed, all of them will yet be brought present before Us. ^[32]

And a sign for them is the dead earth. We have brought it to life and brought forth from it grain, and from it they eat. ^[33]

And We placed therein gardens of palm trees and grapevines and caused to burst forth therefrom some springs - ^[34]

That they may eat of His fruit. And their hands have not produced it, so will they not be grateful? ^[35]

Exalted is He who created all pairs - from what the earth grows and from themselves and from that which they do not know. ^[36]

And a sign for them is the night. We remove from it [the light of] day, so they are [left] in darkness. ^[37]

And the sun runs [on course] toward its stopping point. That is the determination of the Exalted in Might, the Knowing. ^[38]

And the moon - We have determined for it phases, until it returns [appearing] like the old date stalk. ^[39]

It is not allowable for the sun to reach the moon, nor does the night overtake the day, but each, in an orbit, is swimming. ^[40]
