their eyes will be humbled, and humiliation shall spread over them for they were already ordered to prostrate themselves when they were undiminished. (43)
خَاشِعَةً أَبْصَارُهُمْ تَرْهَقُهُمْ ذِلَّةٌ وَقَدْ كَانُوا يُدْعَوْنَ إِلَى السُّجُودِ وَهُمْ سَالِمُونَ ﴿43﴾
therefore, leave me with he who belied this discourse. we will draw them on little by little from where they do not know. (44)
فَذَرْنِي وَمَن يُكَذِّبُ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ سَنَسْتَدْرِجُهُم مِّنْ حَيْثُ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ ﴿44﴾
i shall respite them, my stratagem is firm. (45)
وَأُمْلِي لَهُمْ إِنَّ كَيْدِي مَتِينٌ ﴿45﴾
or, do you ask them for a wage, so that they are burdened with debt? (46)
أَمْ تَسْأَلُهُمْ أَجْرًا فَهُم مِّن مَّغْرَمٍ مُّثْقَلُونَ ﴿46﴾
or, is the unseen with them, and they are writing it down! (47)
أَمْ عِندَهُمُ الْغَيْبُ فَهُمْ يَكْتُبُونَ ﴿47﴾
so be patient with the judgement of your lord and do not be like the companion of the whale (jonah), when he called out choking inwardly. (48)
فَاصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ وَلَا تَكُن كَصَاحِبِ الْحُوتِ إِذْ نَادَى وَهُوَ مَكْظُومٌ ﴿48﴾
had the favor of his lord not come upon him, he would have been blamed, cast upon the shore. (49)
لَوْلَا أَن تَدَارَكَهُ نِعْمَةٌ مِّن رَّبِّهِ لَنُبِذَ بِالْعَرَاء وَهُوَ مَذْمُومٌ ﴿49﴾
but his lord had chosen him and he placed him among the righteous. (50)
فَاجْتَبَاهُ رَبُّهُ فَجَعَلَهُ مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ ﴿50﴾
when the unbelievers hear the reminder, they nearly strike you down with their glances, and say: 'surely, he is mad! ' (51)
وَإِن يَكَادُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَيُزْلِقُونَكَ بِأَبْصَارِهِمْ لَمَّا سَمِعُوا الذِّكْرَ وَيَقُولُونَ إِنَّهُ لَمَجْنُونٌ ﴿51﴾
but it is nothing other than a reminder for all the worlds. (52)
وَمَا هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكْرٌ لِّلْعَالَمِينَ ﴿52﴾
