And when Our communications are recited to them, they say: We have heard indeed; if we pleased we could say the like of it; this is nothing but the stories of the ancients (۳۱)

And when they said: O Allah! if this is the truth from Thee, then rain upon us stones from heaven or inflict on us a painful punishment (۳۲)

But Allah was not going to chastise them while you were among them, nor is Allah going to chastise them while yet they ask for forgiveness (۳۳)

And what (excuse) have they that Allah should not chastise them while they hinder (men) from the Sacred Mosque and they are not (fit to be) guardians of it; its guardians are only those who guard (against evil), but most of them do not know (۳۴)

And their prayer before the House is nothing but whistling and clapping of hands; taste then the chastisement, for you disbelieved (۳۵)

Surely those who disbelieve spend their wealth to hinder (people) from the way of Allah; so they shall spend it, then it shall be to them an intense regret, then they shall be overcome; and those who disbelieve shall be driven together to hell (۳۶)

That Allah might separate the impure from the good, and put the impure, some of it upon the other, and pile it up together, then cast it into hell; these it is that are the losers (۳۷)

Say to those who disbelieve, if they desist, that which is past shall be forgiven to them; and if they return, then what happened to the ancients has already passed (۳۸)

And fight with them until there is no more persecution and religion should be only for Allah; but if they desist, then surely Allah sees what they do (۳۹)

And if they turn back, then know that Allah is your Patron; most excellent is the Patron and most excellent the Helper (۴۰)
