13 Who, when thou readest unto him Our revelations, saith: (Mere) fables of the men of old.

14 Nay, but that which they have earned is rust upon their hearts.

15 Kalla innahum AAan rabbihim yawmaithin lamahjooboona

15 Nay, but surely on that day they will be covered from (the mercy of) their Lord.

16 Thumma innahum lasaloo aljaheemi

26 Whose seal is musk - for this let (all) those strive who strive for bliss -

27 Wamizajuhu min tasneemin

27 And mixed with water of Tasnim,

28 AAaynan yashrabu biha almuqarraboona

28 A spring whence those brought near (to Allah) drink.

29 Inna allatheena ajramoo kanoo mina allatheena amanoo yadhakoona

29 Lo! the guilty used to laugh at those who believed,

30 Waitha marroo bihim yataghamazoona

30 And wink one to another when they passed them;

31 Waitha inqalaboo ila ahlihimu inqalaboo fakiheena

31 And when they returned to their own folk, they returned jesting;

32 Waitha raawhum qaloo inna haolai ladalloona

32 And when they saw them they said: Lo! these have gone astray.

33 Wama orsiloo AAalayhim hafitheena

33 Yet they were not sent as guardians over them.

34 Faalyawma allatheena amanoo mina alkuffari yadhakoona

36 Hal thuwwiba alkuffaru ma kanoo yafAAaloona

36 Are not the disbelievers paid for what they used to do ?
