25.41 . And when they see thee ( O Muhammad ) they treat thee only as a jest ( saying ) : Is this he whom Allah sendeth as a messenger?
25. 25.42 . He would have led us far away from our gods if we had not been staunch to them . They will know , when they behold the doom , who is more astray as to the road .
25. 25.43 . Hast thou seen him who chooseth for his god his own lust? Wouldst thou then be guardian over him?
25. 25.44 . Or deemest thou that most of them hear or understand? They are but as the cattle , nay , but they are farther astray!
25. 25.45 . Hast thou not seen how thy Lord hath spread the shade . And if He willed He could have made it still , then We have made the sun its pilot ;
25. 25.46 . Then We withdraw it unto Us , a gradual withdrawal?
25. 25.47 . And He it is Who maketh night a covering for you , and sleep repose , and maketh day a resurrection .
25. 25.48 . And He it is Who sendeth the winds , glad tidings heralding His mercy , and We send down purifying water from the sky .
25. 25.49 . That We may give life thereby to a dead land , and We give many beasts and men that We have created to drink thereof .
25. 25.50 . And verily We have repeated it among them that they may remember , but most of mankind begrudge aught save in gratitude .
