Did you (O Muhammad ﷺ) observe him who turned away (from Islam).

And gave a little, then stopped (giving)?

Is with him the knowledge of the unseen so that he sees?

Or is he not informed with what is in the Pages (Scripture) of Musa (Moses),

And of Ibrahim (Abraham) who fulfilled (or conveyed) all that (what Allah ordered him to do or convey),

That no burdened person (with sins) shall bear the burden (sins) of another.

And that man can have nothing but what he does (good or bad).

And that his deeds will be seen,

Then he will be recompensed with a full and the best recompense.

And that to your Lord (Allah) is the End (Return of everything).

And that it is He (Allah) Who makes (whom He wills) laugh, and makes (whom He wills) weep;

And that it is He (Allah) Who causes death and gives life;

And that He (Allah) creates the pairs, male and female,

From Nutfah (drops of semen male and female discharges) when it is emitted;

And that upon Him (Allah) is another bringing forth (Resurrection);

And that it is He (Allah) Who gives much or a little (or gives wealth and contentment),

And that He (Allah) is the Lord of Sirius (the star which the pagan Arabs used to worship);

And that it is He (Allah) Who destroyed the former 'Ad (people),

And Thamud (people). He spared none of them.

And the people of Nuh (Noah) aforetime, verily, they were more unjust and more rebellious and transgressing [in disobeying Allah and His Messenger Nuh (Noah)].

And He destroyed the overthrown cities [of Sodom to which Prophet Lout (Lot) was sent].

So there covered them that which did cover (i.e. torment with stones).

Then which of the Graces of your Lord (O man!) will you doubt.

This (Muhammad ﷺ) is a warner (Messenger) of the (series of) warners (Messengers) of old.

The Day of Resurrection draws near,

None besides Allah can avert it, (or advance it, or delay it).

Do you then wonder at this recital (the Quran)?

And you laugh at it and weep not,

Wasting your (precious) lifetime in pastime and amusements (singing, etc.).

So fall you down in prostration to Allah, and worship Him (Alone).
