35:45 If Allah were to take people to task for what they did, He would not leave a single living being on earth, but He gives them respite for an appointed term. When their appointed time comes, then Allah is All-Seeing of His slaves.

36:1 Yā Sīn[1]

36:2 By the Qur’an, full of wisdom,

36:3 You [O Muhammad] are indeed one of the messengers,

36:4 on a straight path,

36:5 [This is] a revelation from the All-Mighty, Most Merciful,

36:6 so that you warn a people whose forefathers were not warned, so they are heedless.

36:7 The decree [of punishment] has been passed against most of them, for they will not believe.

36:8 [It is as if] We have placed shackles around their necks up to their chins, so their heads are forced to remain up,

36:9 and We have placed a barrier before them and a barrier behind them, and have blocked their vision so they cannot see[1].

36:10 It is the same to them whether you warn them or not, they will not believe.

36:11 You can only warn one who follows the Reminder[1] and fears the Most Compassionate unseen. So give him glad tidings of forgiveness and a generous reward.

36:12 It is We Who give life to the dead, and record what they send forth and what they leave behind, and We keep an account of everything in a clear Record[1].
