M. H. Shakir, The Holy Quran; Arabic Text and English Translation; Foot-notes by M. H. Shakir (1974)

for ungratefulness and made their people to alight into the abode of perdition;

29. (Into) hell? They shall enter into it and an evil place it is to settle in.

30. And they set up equals with Allah that they may lead (people) astray from His path. Say: Enjoy yourselves, for surely your return is to the fire.

31. Say to My servants who believe that they should keep up prayer and spend out of what We have given them secretly and openly before the coming of the day in which there shall be no bartering nor mutual befriending.

32. Allah is He Who created the heavens and the earth and sent down water from the clouds, then brought forth with it fruits as a sustenance for you, and He has made the ships subservient to you, that they might run their Course in the sea by His command, and He has made the rivers subservient to you.

33. And He has made subservient to you the sun and the moon pursuing their courses, and He has made subservient to you the night and the day.

34. And He gives you of all that you ask Him; and if you count Allah’s favours, you will not be able to number them*

* Has man ever tried to count Allah’s favours?
