17. On him I shall impose a fearful doom.
18. For lo! he did consider; then he planned
19. (Self) destroyed is he, how he planned!
20. Again (self) destroyed is he, how he planned!
21. Then looked he,
22. Then frowned he and showed displeasure.

31. We have appointed only angels to be wardens of the fire, and their number have We made to be a stumbling block
for those who disbelieve; that those to whom the scripture hath been given may have certainty, and that believers may
increase in faith; and that those to whom the Scripture hath been given and believers may not doubt; and that those in
whose hearts there is disease, and disbelievers, may say: What meaneth Allah by this similitude? Thus Allah sendeth
astray whom He will, and whom He will He guideth. None knoweth the hosts of thy Lord save Him. This is naught else
than a Reminder unto mortals.

33. And the night when it withdraweth

46. And we used to deny the Day of Judgment,
47. Till the inevitable came unto us.
48. The mediation of no mediators will. avail them then.
49. Why now turn they away from the Admonishment
50. As they were frightened asses
51. Fleeing from a lion?
52. Nay, but everyone of them desireth that he should be given open pages (from Allah).
53. Nay, verily. They fear not the Hereafter.
54. Nay, verily. Lo! this is an Admonishment.
55. So whosoever will may heed.
56. And they will not heed unless Allah willeth (it). He is the fount of fear. He is the fount of Mercy.

2. Nay, I swear by the accusing soul (that this Scripture is true).
3. Thinketh man that We shall not assemble his bones?
