Translation of Verse 32-41

32. Who then does more wrong than those who lie about Allah and reject the truth after it has reached them? Is Hell not a ˹fitting˺ home for the disbelievers?

33. And the one who has brought the truth and those who embrace it-it is they who are the righteous.

34. They will have whatever they desire with their Lord. That is the reward of the good-doers.

35. As such, Allah will absolve them of ˹even˺ the worst of what they did and reward them according to the best of what they used to do.

36. Is Allah not sufficient for His servant? Yet they threaten you with other ˹powerless˺ gods besides Him! Whoever Allah leaves to stray will be left with no guide.

37. And whoever Allah guides, none can lead astray. Is Allah not Almighty, capable of punishment?

38. If you ask them ˹O Prophet˺ who created the heavens and the earth, they will certainly say, "Allah!" Ask ˹them˺, "Consider then whatever ˹idols˺ you invoke besides Allah: if it was Allah's Will to harm me, could they undo that harm? Or if He willed ˹some˺ mercy for me, could they withhold His mercy?" Say, "Allah is sufficient for me. In Him ˹alone˺ the faithful put their trust."

39. Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ "O my people! Persist in your ways, for I ˹too˺ will persist in mine. You will soon come to know

40. who will be visited by a humiliating torment ˹in this life˺ and overwhelmed by an everlasting punishment ˹in the next˺."

41. Surely We have revealed to you the Book ˹O Prophet˺ with the truth for humanity. So whoever chooses to be guided, it is for their own good. And whoever chooses to stray, it is only to their own loss. You are not a keeper over them.
