13 Or, say they: He has forged it. Say: Then bring ten forged chapters like it, and call upon whom you can besides Allāh, if you are truthful.

14 But if they answer you not, then know that it is revealed by Allāh’s knowledge, and that there is no God but He. Will you then submit?

15 Whoever desires this world’s life and its finery — We repay them their deeds therein, and they are not made to suffer loss in it.

16 These are they for whom there is nothing but Fire in the Hereafter. And what they work therein is fruitless and their deeds are vain.

17 Is he then (like these) who has with him clear proof from his Lord, and a witness from Him recites it, and before it (is) the Book of Moses, a guide and a mercy? These believe in it. And whoever of the parties disbelieves in it, the Fire is his promised place. So be not in doubt about it. Surely it is the truth from thy Lord, but most men believe not.

18 And who is more unjust than he who forges a lie against Allāh? These will be brought before their Lord, and the witnesses will say: These are they who lied against their Lord. Now surely the curse of Allāh is on the wrongdoers,

19 Who hinder (men) from the path of Allāh and desire to make it crooked. And they are disbelievers in the Hereafter.

20 These will not escape in the earth, nor have they guardians besides Allāh. The chastisement will be doubled for them. They could not bear to hear, and they did not see.

21 These are they who have lost their souls, and that which they forged is gone from them.

22 Truly in the Hereafter they are the greatest losers.

23 Surely those who believe and do good and humble themselves before their Lord, these are the owners of the Garden; therein they will abide.

24 The likeness of the two parties is as the blind and the deaf, and the seer and the hearer. Are they equal in condition? Will you not then mind?
