    (. ain would they decei)e Allah and those who belie)e, but they only decei)e themsel)es,and realise $it% not2

    1). In their hearts is a disease; and Allah has increased their disease0 And rie)ous is the "enalty they $incur%, because they are false $to themsel)es%.

    1". Allah will throw bac# their moc#ery on them, and i)e them ro"e in their tres"asses; sothey will wander li#e blind ones $!o and fro%.

    1#. !hese are they who ha)e bartered Guidance for error0 'ut their traffic is "rofitless, andthey ha)e lost true direction,

    1$. !heir similitude is that of a man who #indled a fire; when it li hted all around him, Allahtoo# away their li ht and left them in utter dar#ness. So they could not see.

    1'. Deaf, dumb, and blind, they will not return $to the "ath%.

    1(. /r $another similitude% is that of a rain5laden cloud from the s#y0 In it are 6ones ofdar#ness, and thunder and li htnin 0 !hey "ress their fin ers in their ears to #ee" out thestunnin thunder5cla", the while they are in terror of death. 'ut Allah is e)er round there-ecters of aith2

    2). !he li htnin all but snatches away their si ht; e)ery time the li ht $ el"s% them, theywal# therein, and when the dar#ness rows on them, they stand still. And if Allah willed, ecould ta#e away their faculty of hearin and seein ; for Allah hath "ower o)er all thin s.

    2 . And if ye are in doubt as to what (e ha)e re)ealed from time to time to /ur ser)ant, then

    "roduce a Sura li#e thereunto; and call your witnesses or hel"ers $If there are any% besidesAllah, if your $doubts% are true.

    2!. 'ut if ye cannot5 and of a surety ye cannot5 then fear the ire whose fuel is men andstones,5 which is "re"ared for those who re-ect aith.

    2". 'ut i)e lad tidin s to those who belie)e and wor# ri hteousness, that their "ortion isGardens, beneath which ri)ers flow. 7)ery time they are fed with fruits therefrom, they say01(hy, this is what we were fed with before,1 for they are i)en thin s in similitude; and theyha)e therein com"anions "ure $and holy%; and they abide therein $for e)er%.

    2#. Allah disdains not to use the similitude of thin s, lowest as well as hi hest. !hose who belie)e #now that it is truth from their ⩝ but those who re-ect aith say0 1(hat meansAllah by this similitude31 'y it e causes many to stray, and many e leads into the ri ht

    2'. ow can ye re-ect the faith in Allah.5 seein that ye were without life, and e a)e youlife; then will e cause you to die, and will a ain brin you to life; and a ain to im will yereturn.

    2(. It is e (ho hath created for you all thin s that are on earth; Moreo)er is desi ncom"rehended the hea)ens, for e a)e order and "erfection to the se)en firmaments; and ofall thin s e hath "erfect #nowled e.
