| 21. And they will say to their skins, `Why have you borne witness against us ?' They will say, `ALLAH has made us speak as HE has made everything else speak. And HE it is Who created you the first time, and unto HIM have you been brought back. 22. `And you did not apprehend, while committing sins, that your ears and your eyes and your skins would bear witness against you; nay, you thought that even ALLAH did not know much of what you used to do. 23. `And that thought of yours, which you entertained concerning your Lord, has ruined you. So now you have become of those who are lost.' 24. Now if they can endure, the Fire is their abode; and if they ask for favour, they are not of those whom favour will be shown. 25. And we had assigned to them companions who made to appear attractive to them what was before them and what was behind them of their deeds, and the same sentence was proved true concerning them as had proved true concerning the communities of jinn and men that had gone before them. Surely, they were the losers. 26. And those who disbelieve say, `Listen not to this Qur'an, but make noise during its recital that you may have the upper hand.' 27. And, most certainly, WE will make those who disbelieve taste a severe punishment, and, most certainly, WE will requite them for the worst of their deeds. 28. That is the reward of the enemies of ALLAH - the Fire. For them there will be an abiding home therein as a requital because they persisted in denying Our Signs. 29. And those who disbelieve will say, `Our Lord, show us those who led us astray from among both the jinn and men, that we may trample them under our feet so that they may be abased.' |
