LVIII, 18-LIX, 1. THE CHAPTER OF THE EMIGRATION. 273
Their wealth shall not avail them, nor their children at all, against God; they are the fellows of the Fire, and they shall dwell therein for aye!
On the day when God raises them all together, then will they swear to Him as they swore to you; and they will think that they rest on somewhat. Ay, verily, they are liars!
[20] Satan hath overridden them, and made them forget the remembrance of God: they are the crew of Satan; ay, the crew of Satan, they are the losers!
Verily, those who oppose God and His Apostle are amongst the most vile.
God has written, 'I will surely prevail, I and my apostles;' verily, God is strong and mighty!
Thou shalt not find a people who believe in God and the last day loving him who opposes God and His Apostle, even though it be their fathers, or their sons, or their brethren, or their clansmen.
He has written faith in their hearts, and He aids them with a spirit from Him; and will make them enter into gardens beneath which rivers flow, to dwell therein for aye! God is well pleased with them, and they well pleased with Him: they are God's crew; ay, God's crew, they shall prosper!
THE CHAPTER OF THE EMIGRATION. (LIX. Medinah.)
In the name of the merciful and compassionate God.
What is in the heavens and in the earth celebrates God's praises; He is the mighty, the wise!
