51:51 And do not ascribe divinity to aught side by side with God: verily, I am a plain warner to you from Him!”
51:52 [But] thus it is: never yet came any apostle to those who lived before their time but they said, “A spellbinder [is he], or a madman!”
51:53 Have they, perchance, handed down this [way of thinking] as a legacy unto one another? Nay, they are people filled with overweening arrogance!
51:54 Turn, then, away from them, and thou shalt incur no blame.
51:55 yet go on reminding [all who w6uld listen]: for, verily, such a reminder will profit the believers.
51:56 And [tell them that] I have not created the invisible beings and men to any end other than that they may [know and] worship Me.
51:57 [But withal] no sustenance do I ever demand of them, nor do I demand that they feed Me.
51:58 for, verily, God Himself is the Provider of all sustenance, the Lord of all might, the Eternal!
51:59 And, verily, they who are bent on doing evil shall have their share [of evil] like unto the share of their fellows [of old], so let them not ask Me to hasten [their doom]!
51:60 For, woe unto those who are bent on denying the truth – [woe] on the Day which they have been promised!
