Chapter 39, Page 464, Juz 24

53. Say, ‘[God says], My servants who have harmed yourselves by your own excess, do not despair of God’s mercy. God forgives all sins: He is truly the Most Forgiving, the Most Merciful. 54. Turn to your Lord. Submit to Him before the punishment overtakes you and you can no longer be helped. 55. Follow the best teaching sent down to you from your Lord, before the punishment suddenly takes you, unawares, 56. and your soul says, “Woe is me for having neglected what is due to God, and having been one of those who scoffed!” 57. Or it says, “If God had guided me, I would have joined the righteous!” 58. Or, faced by punishment, it says, “If only I could have another chance, I would join those who do good!” 59. No indeed! My messages came to you and you rejected them: you were arrogant and rejected the truth.’ 60. On the Day of Resurrection, you [Prophet] will see those who told lies against God, their faces darkened. Is there not ample punishment for the arrogant in Hell? 61. But God will deliver those who took heed of Him to their place of safety: no harm will touch them, nor will they grieve. 62. God is the Creator of all things; He has charge of everything; 63. the keys of the heavens and earth are His. Those who have rejected the revelations of God will be the losers.
