16. وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ یَسْتَمِعُ إِلَیْکَ حَتَّى إِذَا خَرَجُوا مِنْ عِنْدِکَ قَالُوا لِلَّذِینَ أُوتُوا الْعِلْمَ مَاذَا قَالَ آنِفآ أُوْلَئِکَ الَّذِینَ طَبَعَ اللهُ عَلَى قُلُوبِهِمْ وَاتَّبَعُوا أَهْوَاءَهُمْ
16- AND AMONG THEM IS HE WHO GIVES EAR TO YOU, UNTIL THEY ALL LEFT YOUR PRESENCE, THEY SCORNFULLY SAID TO THOSE WHO ARE WITH KNOWLEDGE:- ``WHAT WAS IT THAT HE SAID NOW?''
THOSE ARE THE ONES THAT ALLAH HAS SET A SEAL UPON THEIR HEARTS, AND THEY FOLLOWED THEIR CAPRICES.
17. وَالَّذِینَ اهْتَدَوْا زَادَهُمْ هُدىً وَآتَاهُمْ تَقْواهُمْ
17- AND THOSE WHO WERE GUIDED, HE INCREASED THEIR GUIDANCE, AND GAVE THEM THEIR PIETY. (SO AS TO AVOID EVIL)
18. فَهَلْ یَنْظُرُونَ إِلاَّ السَّاعَةَ أَنْ تَأْتِیَهُمْ بَغْتَةً فَقَدْ جَاءَ أَشْرَاطُهَا فَأَنَّى لَهُمْ إِذَا جَاءَتْهُمْ ذِکْرَاهُمْ
18- THEN DO THEY EXPECT ANYTHING EXCEPT THE HOUR TO COME ON THEM OUT OF A SUDDEN? VERILY ITS CONDITIONS HAVE ALREADY COME. AND WHAT IS THE USE OF WARNINGS FOR THEM, WHEN IT ACTUALLY HAS COME?
19. فَاعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللهُ وَاسْتَغْفِرْ لِذَنْبِکَ وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِینَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتِ وَاللهُ یَعْلَمُ مُتَقَلَّبَکُمْ وَمَثْوَاکُمْ
19- SO KNOW THAT, THERE IS NO GOD EXCEPT ALLAH, AND ASK FORGIVENESS FOR YOUR SIN, AND ALSO FOR THE BELIEVING MEN, AND BELIEVING WOMEN; THAT ALLAH KNOWS YOUR MOVEMENTS AND HABITATION.
