In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
5. The similitude of those who were charged with the Mosaic Law but who subsequently failed is that of a donkey which carries huge tomes. Evil is the similitude of people who falsify the Signs of Allah. And Allah guides not people who do wrong.
6. Say, "O you who stand on Judaism! If you think that you are friends to Allah to the exclusion of humans, then express your desire for death, if you are truthful!"
7. But never will they express their desire for death because of what their hands have sent on before them! And Allah knows well those who do wrong!
8. Say, "The death from which you flee will truly overtake you, then will you be sent back to the Knower of things secret and open, and God will tell you the things that you did!"
9. O you who believe! When the call is proclaimed to prayer on Friday, hasten earnestly to remembrance of Allah, and leave off business. That is best for you, if you only knew.
10. And when the prayer is finished, then may you disperse through the land and seek of the bounty of Allah, and celebrate the praises of Allah often, that you may prosper.
11. But when they see some bargain or some amusement, they disperse headlong to it, and leave you standing. Say, "That from the Presence of Allah is better than any amusement or bargain! And Allah is the Best to provide."
Friday 62:5-11
