57. "Or (lest) it should say: 'If only Allah had guided me, I should certainly have been among the righteous!'-

60. Wayawma alqiyamati tara allatheena kathaboo AAala Allahi wujoohuhum muswaddatun alaysa fee jahannama mathwan lilmutakabbireena

60. On the Day of Judgment wilt thou see those who told lies against Allah.- their faces will be turned black; Is there not in Hell an abode for the Haughty?


61. Wayunajjee Allahu allatheena ittaqaw bimafazatihim la yamassuhumu alssoo-o wala hum yahzanoona

61. But Allah will deliver the righteous to their place of salvation: no evil shall touch them, nor shall they grieve.


62. Allahu khaliqu kulli shay-in wahuwa AAala kulli shay-in wakeelun

62. Allah is the Creator of all things, and He is the Guardian and Disposer of all affairs.
