Qur'an 20120726

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

39.  Say, "O my people!  Do whatever you can, I will do.  But soon will you know."

40.  Who it is to whom comes a Penalty of ignominy, and on whom descends a Penalty that abides.

41.  Verily We have revealed the Book to you in Truth, for mankind.  He then that receives guidance benefits his own soul.  But he that strays injures his own soul, nor are you set over them to dispose of their affairs.

42.  It is Allah that takes the souls at death, and those that die not during their sleep.  Those on whom God has passed the decree of death, God detains.  But the rest God returns for a term appointed.  Verily in this are Signs for those who reflect.

43.  What!  Do they take for intercessors others besides Allah?  Say, "Even if they have no power and no intelligence?"

44.  Say, "To Allah belongs exclusively intercession."  To God belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth.  In the end, it is to God that you shall be brought back.

O my people!  Do whatever you can, I will do.  But soon will you know.

Even if they have no power and no intelligence?

To Allah belongs exclusively intercession.
