36 So what is the matter with those who disbelieve that they hasten to listen from you [O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم), in order to belie you and to mock at you, and at Allah's Book (this Qur'an)].

36 Famali allatheena kafaroo qibalaka muhtiAAeena

36 Now what is the matter with the Unbelievers that they rush madly before thee -

42 So leave them to plunge in vain talk and play about, until they encounter that Day of theirs which they have been promised! -
