Chapter 25, Page 363, Juz 19

35. We verily gave Moses the Scripture and placed with him his brother Aaron as henchman. 36. Then We said: Go together unto the folk who have denied Our revelations. Then We destroyed them, a complete destruction. 37. And Noah's folk, when they denied the messengers, We drowned them and made of them a portent for mankind. We have prepared a painful doom for evil-doers. 38. And (the tribes of) A'ad and Thamud, and the dwellers in Ar-Rass, and many generations in between. 39. Each (of them) We warned by examples, and each (of them) We brought to utter ruin. 40. And indeed they have passed by the township whereon was rained the fatal rain. Can it be that they have not seen it? Nay, but they hope for no resurrection. 41. And when they see thee (O Muhammad) they treat thee only as a jest (saying): Is this he whom Allah sendeth as a messenger? 42. He would have led us far away from our gods if we had not been staunch to them. They will know, when they behold the doom, who is more astray as to the road. 43. Hast thou seen him who chooseth for his god his own lust? Wouldst thou then be guardian over him? 44. Or deemest thou that most of them hear or understand? They are but as the cattle - nay, but they are farther astray?
