وَقَالُوا لَوْلاَ أُنْزِلَ عَلَیْهِ آیَاتٌ مِنْ رَبِّهِ قُلْ إِنَّمَا الاْیَاتُ عِنْدَ اللهِ وَإِنَّمَا أَنَا نَذِیرٌ مُبِینٌ(( 50 ))

50- AND THEY SAID:- ``WHY SIGNS HAVE NOT BEEN SENT DOWN TO HIM FROM HIS LORD?''

      SAY:- ``THE SIGNS ARE ONLY WITH ALLAH, AND I AM ONLY A CLEAR WARNER.

أَوَلَمْ یَکْفِهِمْ أَ نَّا أَنْزَلْنَا عَلَیْکَ الْکِتَابَ یُتْلَى عَلَیْهِمْ إِنَّ فِی ذَلِکَ لَرَحْمَةً وَذِکْرَى لِقَوْم یُؤْمِنُونَ(( 51 ))

51- DOES IT NOT SUFFICE THEM THAT, WE HAVE SENT DOWN UPON YOU THE BOOK THAT IS RECITED TO THEM? VERILY IN THAT IS A MERCY AND REMINDER TO A PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE.

قُلْ کَفَى بِاللهِ بَیْنِی وَبَیْنَکُمْ شَهِیداً یَعْلَمُ مَا فِی السَّمَـوَاتِ وَالاَْرْضِ وَالَّذِینَ آمَنُوا بِالْبَاطِلِ وَکَفَرُوا بِاللهِ أُوْلَئِکَ هُمُ الْخَاسِرُونَ(( 52 ))

52- SAY:- ``ENOUGH IS ALLAH FOR A WITNESS BETWEEN ME AND YOU. HE KNOWS WHATEVER IS IN THE HEAVENS AND EARTH. AND THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN FALSEHOOD AND DISBELIEVED ALLAH, THEY ARE THE (REAL) LOSERS.''

وَیَسْتَعْجِلُونَکَ بِالْعَذَابِ وَلَوْلاَ أَجَلٌ مُسَمًّى لَجَاءَهُمُ الْعَذَابُ وَلَیَأْتِیَنَّهُمْ بَغْتَةً وَهُمُ لاَ یَشْعُرُونَ(( 53 ))

53- AND THEY ASK YOU TO HASTEN THE PUNISHMENT. AND IF IT WAS NOT FOR AN APPOINTED TERM, THE PUNISHMENT WOULD HAVE COME TO THEM. AND IT WILL COME UPON THEM SUDDENLY, WHILE THEY KNOW IT NOT.

یَسْتَعْجِلُونَکَ بِالْعَذَابِ وَإِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ لَمُحِیطَةٌ بِالْکَافِرِینَ(( 54 ))

54- THEY ASK YOU TO HASTEN THE PUNISHMENT, AND THE HELL HAS ENCOMPASSED THE NON-BELIEVERS.

یَوْمَ یَغْشَاهُمُ الْعَذَابُ مِنْ فَوْقِهِمْ وَمِنْ تَحْتِ أَرْجُلِهِمْ وَیَقُولُ ذُوقُوا مَا کُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ(( 55 ))

55- THE DAY IN WHICH THE PUNISHMENT WILL COVER THEM FROM ABOVE THEM, AND FROM BENEATH THEIR FEET; AND HE SAYS:- ``TASTE (THE CONSEQUENCE OF) THAT WHICH YOU HAVE BEEN DOING.''
