Blessed is He who, if that were His will, could give thee better (things) than those,- Gardens beneath which rivers flow; and He could give thee palaces (secure to dwell in). {10} Nay they deny the hour (of the judgment to come): but We have prepared a blazing fire for such as deny the hour: {11} When it sees them from a place fAr off, they will hear its fury and its ranging sigh. {12} And when they are cast, bound together into a constricted place therein, they will pLead for destruction there and then! {13} "This day plead not for a single destruction: plead for destruction oft-repeated!" {14} Say: "Is that best, or the eternal garden, promised to the righteous? for them, that is a reward as well as a goal (of attainment). {15} "For them there will be therein all that they wish for: they will dwell (there) for aye: A promise to be prayed for from thy Lord." {16} The day He will gather them together as well as those whom they worship besides Allah, He will ask: "Was it ye who let these My servants astray, or did they stray from the Path themselves?" {17} They will say: "Glory to Thee! not meet was it for us that we should take for protectors others besides Thee: But Thou didst bestow, on them and their fathers, good things (in life), until they forgot the Message: for they were a people (worthless and) lost." {18} (Allah will say): "Now have they proved you liars in what ye say: so ye cannot avert (your penalty) nor (get) help." And whoever among you does wrong, him shall We cause to taste of a grievous Penalty. {19} And the messengers whom We sent before thee were all (men) who ate food and walked through the streets: We have made some of you as a trial for others: will ye have patience? for Allah is One Who sees (all things). {20}
