22.41 . Those who , if We give them power in the land , establish worship and pay the poor due and enjoin kindness and forbid iniquity . And Allah ' s is the sequel of events .

22.42 . If they deny thee ( Muhammad ) , even so the folk of Noah , and ( the tribes of ) Aad and Thamud , before thee , denied ( Our messengers ) ;

22.43 . And the folk of Abraham and the folk of Lot ;

22.44 . ( And ) the dwellers in Midian . And Moses was denied ; but I indulged the disbelievers a long while , then I seized them , and how ( terrible ) was My abhorrence!

22.45 . How many a township have We destroyed while it was sinful , so that it lieth ( to this day ) in , and ( how many ) a deserted well and lofty tower!

22.46 . Have they not travelled in the land , and have they hearts wherewith to feel and ears wherewith to hear? For indeed it is not the eyes that grow blind , but it is the hearts , which are within the bosoms , that grow blind .

22.47 . And they will bid thee hasten on the Doom , and Allah faileth not His promise , but lo! a Day with Allah is as a the sand years of what ye reckon .

22.48 . And how many a township did I suffer long though it was sinful! Than I grasped it . Unto Me is the return .

22.49 . Say : O mankind! I am only a plain warner unto you .

22.50 . Those who believe and do good works , for them pardon and a rich provision ;

22.51 . While those who strive to thwart Our revelations , such are rightful owners of the Fire .

22.52 . Never sent We a messenger or a Prophet before thee but when He recited ( the message ) Satan proposed ( opposition ) in respect of that which he recited thereof . But Allah abolisheth that which Satan proposeth . Then Allah establisheth His revelations . Allah is Knower , Wise ;

22.53 . That He may make that which the devil proposeth a temptation for those in whose hearts is a disease , and those whose hearts are hardened Lo! the evil doers are in open schism .

22.54 . And that those who have been given knowledge may know that it is the truth from thy Lord , so that they may believe therein and their hearts may submit humbly unto Him . Lo! Allah verily is guiding those who believe unto a right path .

22.55 . And those who disbelieve will not cease to be in doubt thereof until the Hour come upon them unawares , or there come unto them the doom of a disastrous day .

22.56 . The Sovereignty on that day will be Allah ' s . He will judge between them . Then those who believed and did good works will be in Gardens of Delight ,

22.57 . While those who disbelieved and denied Our revelations , for them will be a shameful doom .

22.58 . Those who fled their homes for the cause of Allah and then were slain or died , Allah verily will provide for them a good provision . Lo! Allah , He verily is Best of all who make provision .

22.59 . Assuredly He will cause them to enter by an entry that they will love . Lo! Allah verily is knower , Indulgent .

22.60 . That ( is so ) . And whoso hath retaliated with the like of that which he was made to suffer and then hath ( again ) been wronged , Allah will succour him . Lo! Allah verily is , Mild , Forgiving .
