from the way of Allah
and there be a great punishment for you.

96 That which is with you will be spent
but what is with Allah shall last,
and We will surely pay the patient their reward
by the best of what they used to do.
97 Whoever acts righteously,
[whether] male or female, should he be faithful,
— We shall revive him with a good life
and pay them their reward
by the best of what they used to do.

98 When you recite the Qur’ān,
seek the protection of Allah
against the outcast Satan.
99 Indeed he does not have any authority
over those who have faith
and put their trust in their Lord.
100 His authority is only over those who befriend him
and those who make him a partner [of Allah].
