53.21 . Are yours the males and His the females?

53.22 . That indeed were an unfair division!

53.23 . They are but names which ye have named , ye and your fathers , for which Allah hath revealed no warrant . They follow but a guess and that which ( they ) themselves desire . And now the guidance from their Lord hath come unto them .

53.24 . Or shall man have what he coveteth?

53.25 . But unto Allah belongeth the after ( life ) , and the former .

53.26 . And how many angels are in the heavens whose intercession availeth naught save after Allah giveth leave to whom He chooseth and accepteth!

53.27 . Lo! it is those who disbelieve in the Hereafter who name the angels with the names of females .

53.28 . And they have no knowledge thereof . They follow but a guess , and lo! a guess can never take the place of the truth .

53.29 . Then withdraw ( O Muhammad ) from him who fleeth from Our remembrance and desireth but the life of the world .

53.30 . Such is their sum of knowledge . Lo! thy Lord is best aware of him who strayeth , and He is best aware of him who goeth right .

53.31 . And unto Allah belongeth whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth , that He may reward those who do evil with that which they have done , and reward those who do good with goodness .

53.32 . Those who avoid enormities of sin and abominations , save the unwilled offences ( for them ) lo! thy Lord is of vast mercy . He is best aware of you ( from the time ) when He created you from the earth , and when ye were hidden in the bellies of your mothers . Therefor ascribe not purity unto yourselves . He is best aware of him who wardeth off ( evil ) .

53.33 . Didst thou ( O Muhammad ) observe him who turned away ,

53.34 . And gave a little , then was grudging?

53.35 . Hath he knowledge of the Unseen so that he seeth?

53.36 . Or hath he not had news of what is in the books of Moses

53.37 . And Abraham who paid his debt :

53.38 . That no laden one shall bear another ' s load ,

53.39 . And that man hath only that for which be maketh effort ,

53.40 . And that his effort will be seen ,
