And warn them, [O Muhammad], of the Day of Regret, when the matter will be concluded; and [yet], they are in [a state of] heedlessness, and they do not believe.

And I will leave you and those you invoke other than Allah and will invoke my Lord. I expect that I will not be in invocation to my Lord unhappy."
Ich werde mich von euch und von dem, was ihr anstatt Allahs anruft, fernhalten und nur meinen Herrn anrufen. Vielleicht werde ich im Bittgebet zu meinem Herrn nicht unglücklich sein."
And I will withdraw from you and what you call on besides Allah, and I will call upon my Lord; may be I shall not remain unblessed in calling upon my Lord.

Sag: Wer sich im Irrtum befindet, den möge der Allerbarmer lange darin gewähren lassen. Wenn sie dann sehen, was ihnen angedroht ist, entweder die Strafe oder die Stunde, da werden sie wissen, wer sich in einer (noch) schlechteren Lage befindet und die schwächere Heerschar hat.
