Noon. By the Pen and that (the angels) write,
2
you are not, because of the favor of your Lord, mad.
3
Indeed, there is an unfailing wage for you.
4
Surely, you (Prophet Muhammad) are of a great morality.
5
You shall see and they will see
6
which of you is the demented.
7
Indeed, your Lord knows very well those who strayed from His Path, and those who are guided.
8
Therefore, do not obey those who belie,
9
they wish you would compromise, then, they would compromise.
10
And do not obey every mean swearer,
11
the backbiter who goes about slandering,
12
those who hinder good, the guilty aggressor,
13
the crude of low character
14
because he has wealth and sons.
15
When Our verses are recited to him, he says: 'They are but fairytales of the ancients'
16
We shall mark him upon his nose!
17
We have tried them as We tried the owners of the garden who had sworn that in the morning they would reap it,
18
without adding to their swearing, (Allah willing, InshaAllah).
19
Then, a visitation from your Lord came down upon it while they slept,
20
and in the morning it was if the garden had been reaped.
21
(Then) in the morning they called out to one another, saying:
22
'Come out to your tillage if you want to reap'
23
And so they departed, whispering to one another:
24
'No needy person shall set foot in it today'
25
And they went out early, determined in their resolve.
26
But when they saw it they said: 'We have surely gone astray.
27
No, rather, we have been prevented'
28
(Whereupon) the best among them said: 'Did I not say to you to exalt (Allah)'
29
'Exaltations to Allah, our Lord' they said, 'We were truly harmdoers'
30
And they came blaming one another.
