50:15  Were We then weary with the first Creation that they should be in such a confused state of mind about a new Creation!
50:16  And We did create man, and We know the promptings of his own self. And We are closer to him than any bodily channel having access into his brain
50:17  When the two frequently confronting voices, one located on the right and one on the left, confront each othe

50:20  And then the Trumpet is blown — there then is the Day promised
50:21  And every soul comes forth accompanied by a driver and a witness
50:22  "You were careless about this. Now that We have taken off your cover from you, strong is your eyesight this Day!"
50:23  And his Companion [witness] says, "It's ready here — what in my hand is [man's record]!"
50:24  "Throw into Hell every stubborn suppressor of evidence proving existence of Allah [with attributes as given in the Qur'aan]!"
50:25  "Who was forbidding what was good, transgressing all bounds, and casting doubts and suspicions."
50:26  "Who had set up other god/s besides Allah! So throw him into the severe punishment."
50:27  His Companion says, "Our Lord! I did not make him transgress, but he was (himself) gone far astray."
50:28  He [Allah] says, "Quarrel not in My Presence; and I did send you the warning in advance."
50:29  "No alteration in the Word with Me, and I am never unjust to My subjects."
50:30  That Day We ask Hell, "Are you full?" And it asks, "Are there any more?"
50:31  And the Garden [of Paradise] is brought near for the pious and righteous, and it is no longer a distant objective [for them.
50:32  "This is what you were promised. [And this is what was promised] to every one who turned (to Allah in sincere repentance) and protected (himself against satanic influence.

50:34  "Enter therein [in Paradise] in Peace and Security; this is time of eternal life!"
50:35  There is for them therein all that they desire. And [there is besides] much more with Us
50:36  And how many a generation before them, stronger in power than they, did We destroy! They had wandered through the lands in search of a place of escape!
50:37  Certainly indeed in this is a lesson to learn for any who has an understanding mind or who lends an insightful ear
50:38  We created the heavens and the earth and all things in between in six periods of time. And weariness did not even touch Us
50:39  Have patience, then, over what they say, and glorify your Lord with praise, before the rising of the sun and before its setting
