But when he delivereth them, behold! they transgress insolently through the earth in defiance of right! O mankind! your
insolence is against your own souls,- an enjoyment of the life of the present: in the end, to Us is your return, and We
shall show you the truth of all that ye did.
10:24
The likeness of the life of the present is as the rain which We send down from the skies: by its mingling arises the
produce of the earth- which provides food for men and animals: (It grows) till the earth is clad with its golden
ornaments and is decked out (in beauty): the people to whom it belongs think they have all powers of disposal over it:
There reaches it Our command by night or by day, and We make it like a harvest clean-mown, as if it had not
flourished only the day before! thus do We explain the Signs in detail for those who reflect.
10:25
But Allah doth call to the Home of Peace: He doth guide whom He pleaseth to a way that is straight.
10:26
To those who do right is a goodly (reward)- Yea, more (than in measure)! No darkness nor shame shall cover their
faces! they are companions of the garden; they will abide therein (for aye)!
10:27
But those who have earned evil will have a reward of like evil: ignominy will cover their (faces): No defender will they
have from (the wrath of) Allah: Their faces will be covered, as it were, with pieces from the depth of the darkness of
night: they are companions of the Fire: they will abide therein (for aye)!
10:28
One day shall We gather them all together. Then shall We say to those who joined gods (with Us): "To your place! ye
and those ye joined as 'partners' We shall separate them, and their "Partners" shall say: "It was not us that ye
worshipped!
10:29
"Enough is Allah for a witness between us and you: we certainly knew nothing of your worship of us!"
10:30
There will every soul prove (the fruits of) the deeds it sent before: they will be brought back to Allah their rightful Lord,
