Chapter 52, Page 525, Juz 27

29. So remind, [O Muḥammad], for you are not, by the favor of your Lord, a soothsayer or a madman. 30. Or do they say [of you], "A poet for whom we await a misfortune of time"? 31. Say, "Wait, for indeed I am, with you, among the waiters." 32. Or do their minds command them to [say] this, or are they a transgressing people? 33. Or do they say, "He has made it up"? Rather, they do not believe. 34. Then let them produce a statement like it, if they should be truthful. 35. Or were they created by nothing, or were they the creators [of themselves]? 36. Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Rather, they are not certain. 37. Or have they the depositories [containing the provision] of your Lord? Or are they the controllers [of them]? 38. Or have they a stairway [into the heaven] upon which they listen? Then let their listener produce a clear authority [i.e., proof]. 39. Or has He daughters while you have sons? 40. Or do you, [O Muḥammad], ask of them a payment, so they are by debt burdened down? 41. Or have they [knowledge of] the unseen, so they write [it] down? 42. Or do they intend a plan? But those who disbelieve - they are the object of a plan. 43. Or have they a deity other than Allāh? Exalted is Allāh above whatever they associate with Him. 44. And if they were to see a fragment from the sky falling, they would say, "[It is merely] clouds heaped up." 45. So leave them until they meet their Day in which they will be struck insensible - 46. The Day their plan will not avail them at all, nor will they be helped. 47. And indeed, for those who have wronged is a punishment before that, but most of them do not know. 48. And be patient, [O Muḥammad], for the decision of your Lord, for indeed, you are in Our eyes [i.e., sight]. And exalt [Allāh] with praise of your Lord when you arise 49. And in a part of the night exalt Him and after [the setting of] the stars.
