Fire: every time they wish to get away therefrom, they will be forced
thereinto, and it will be said to them: "Taste ye the Penalty of the
Fire, the which ye were wont to reject as false."

deny.

called a lie.

before the greater chastisement that haply they may turn.
032.022
Y: And who does more wrong than one to whom are recited the Signs of his
Lord, and who then turns away therefrom? Verily from those who
transgress We shall exact (due) Retribution.

of his Lord, then turneth from them. Lo! We shall requite the guilty.

the matters wherein they differ (among themselves)

concerning that wherein they differ.
032.026

before them, in whose dwellings they (now) go to and fro? Verily in
that are Signs: Do they not then listen?
P: Is it not a guidance for them (to observe) how many generations We
destroyed before them, amid whose dwelling places they do walk? Lo!
therein verily are portents! Will they not then heed?
S: Does it not point out to them the right way, how many of the
generations, in whose abodes they go about, did We destroy before them?
Most surely there are signs in this; will they not then hear?
032.027
Y: And do they not see that We do drive rain to parched soil (bare of
herbage), and produce therewith crops, providing food for their cattle
and themselves? Have they not the vision?
P: Have they not seen how We lead the water to the barren land and
therewith bring forth crops whereof their cattle eat, and they
themselves? Will they not then see?
S: Do they not see that We drive the water to a land having no herbage,
then We bring forth thereby seed-produce of which their cattle and they
themselves eat; will they not then see?
032.028
Y: They say: "When will this decision be, if ye are telling the truth?"
P: And they say: When cometh this victory (of yours) if ye are truthful?
S: And they say: When will this judgment take place, if you are
truthful?
032.029
Y: Say: "On the Day of Decision, no profit will it be to Unbelievers if
they (then) believe! nor will they be granted a respite."
P: Say (unto them): On the day of the victory the faith of those who
disbelieve (and who then will believe) will not avail them, neither
will they be reprieved.
S: Say: On the Day of Judgment the faith of those who (now) disbelieve
will not profit them, nor will they be respited.
032.030
Y: So turn away from them, and wait: they too are waiting.
P: So withdraw from them (O Muhammad), and await (the event). Lo! they
(also) are awaiting (it).
