O Prophet, say to them, "I shall advise you of one thing: Think hard singly or in twos for the sake of Allah and reflect as to what is there of madness in your companion.66 He is only a warner to you before the coming of a dreadful torment."67 Say to them, "If I have asked you for a reward, keep it with yourselves,68 for my reward is with Allah and He is a witness over everything."69 Say to them, "My Lord inspires (me) with the Truth,70 and He is the Knower of all the hidden realities." Say, "The Truth has come; now falsehood cannot succeed whatever it may do." Say "If I have gone astray, the burden of my going astray is on myself alone, and if I am on right guidance, it is by virtue of what my Lord reveals to me. He hears everything and is - near at hand."71 Would that you could see these people when they will be in a state of confusion! They will not be able to escape but will be seized from a place close by.72 Then they will say, "We believe in it,"73 whereas they cannot attain a thing gone far out of hand.74 Even before they had disbelieved and used to conjecture without true knowledge.75 At that time they will be deprived of that which they will desire, as will have been deprived their likes before them: Indeed they had been involved in a misleading suspicion.76
