THE CHAPTER OF THE TROOPS.
[25] Shall he who must screen himself with his own face from the evil torment on the resurrection day....? And it shall be said of those who do wrong, taste what ye have earned. )
Those before them called the (prophets) liars, and the torment came to them from whence they perceived it not; and God made them taste disgrace in the life of this world. But surely the torment of the hereafter is greater, if they did but know. We have struck out for men in this Qur'ân every sort of parable, haply they may be mindful. An Arabic Qur'ân with no crookedness therein ; haply they may fear!
[30] God has struck out a parable, a man who has partners who oppose each other; and a man who is wholly given up to another ; shall they be deemed equal in similitude ? praise be to God! nay, but most of them know not!
Verily, thou shalt die, and, verily, they shall die ; then, verily, on the resurrection day before your Lord shall ye dispute.
And who is more unjust than he who lies against God, and calls the truth a lie when it comes to him? Is there not in hell a resort for those who misbelieve? but whoso brings the truth and believes in it, these are they who fear.
[35] For them is what they please with their Lord, that is the reward of those who do well; that God may cover for them their offences which they have done, and may reward them with their hire for the best of that which they have done. \
Is not God sufficient for His servants ? and yet they would frighten thee with those beside Him!.
* By their idols.
