11.51 . O my people! I ask of you no reward for it . Lo! my reward is the concern only of Him who made me . Have ye then no sense?
11. 11.52 . And , O my people! Ask forgiveness of your Lord , then turn unto Him repentant ; He will cause the sky to rain abundance on you and will add unto you strength to your strength . Turn not away , guilty!
11. 11.53 . They said : O Hud! Thou hast brought us no clear proof and we are not going to forsake our gods on thy ( mere ) saying , and we are not believers in thee .
11. 11.54 . We say naught save that one of our gods hath possessed thee in an evil way . He said : I call Allah to witness , and do ye ( too ) bear witness , that I am innocent of ( all ) that ye ascribe as partners ( to Allah )
11. 11.55 . Beside Him . So ( try to ) circumvent me , all of you , give me no respite .
11. 11.56 . Lo! I have put my trust in Allah , my Lord and your Lord . Not an animal but He doth grasp it by the forelock! Lo! my Lord is on a straight path .
11. 11.57 . And if ye turn away , still I have conveyed unto you that wherewith I was sent unto you , and my Lord will set in place of you a folk other than you . Ye cannot injure Him at all . Lo! my Lord is Guardian over all things .
11. 11.58 . And when Our commandment came to pass We saved Hud and those who believed with him by a mercy from Us ; We saved them from a harsh doom .
11. 11.59 . And such were Aad . They denied the revelations of their Lord and flouted His messengers and followed the command of every froward potentate .
11. 11.60 . And a curse was made to follow them in the world and on the Day of Resurrection . Lo! Aad disbelieved in their Lord . A far removal for Aad , the folk of Hud!
