ﱁIndeed WeﱂWe revealedﱃto youﱄthe Bookﱅfor [the] mankindﱆﱇin truthﱈSo whoeverﱉaccepts guidanceﱊﱋthen (it is) for his soulﱌand whoeverﱍgoes astrayﱎthen onlyﱏhe straysﱐﱑagainst his (soul)ﱒAnd notﱓyouﱔ(are) over themﱕa managerﱖ
Surely We have revealed to you the Book ˹O Prophet˺ with the truth for humanity. So whoever chooses to be guided, it is for their own good. And whoever chooses to stray, it is only to their own loss. You are not a keeper over them.

˹It is˺ Allah ˹Who˺ calls back the souls ˹of people˺ upon their death as well as ˹the souls˺ of the living during their sleep. Then He keeps those for whom He has ordained death, and releases the others until ˹their˺ appointed time. Surely in this are signs for people who reflect.

Yet when Allah alone is mentioned, the hearts of those who disbelieve in the Hereafter are filled with disgust. But as soon as those ˹gods˺ other than Him are mentioned, they are filled with joy.

Even if the wrongdoers were to possess everything in the world twice over, they would certainly offer it to ransom themselves from the horrible punishment on Judgment Day, for they will see from Allah what they had never expected.
