grateful?

54. When those who believe in Our Ayt (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) come to you, say: "Salmun 'Alaikum" (peace be on you); your Lord has written Mercy for Himself, so that, if any of you does evil in ignorance, and thereafter repents and does righteous good deeds (by obeying Allh), then surely, He is OftForgiving, Most Merciful.

55. And thus do We explain the Ayt (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) in detail, that the way of the Mujrimn (criminals, polytheists, sinners), may become manifest.

56. Say (O Muhammad ): "I have been forbidden to worship those whom you invoke (worship) besides Allh." Say: "I will not follow your vain desires. If I did, I would go astray, and I would not be one of the rightly guided."

57. Say (O Muhammad ): "I am on clear proof from my Lord (Islmic Monotheism), but you deny (the truth that has come to me from Allh). I have not gotten what you are asking for impatiently (the torment). The decision is only for Allh, He declares the truth, and He is the Best of judges."

58. Say: "If I had that which you are asking for impatiently (the torment), the matter would have been settled at once between me and you, but Allh knows best the Zlimn (polytheists and wrongdoers, etc.)."

59. And with Him are the keys of the Ghaib (all that is hidden), none knows them but He. And He knows whatever there is in (or on) the earth and in the sea; not a leaf falls, but he knows it. There is not a grain in the darkness of the earth nor anything fresh or dry, but is written in a Clear Record.

60. It is He, Who takes your souls by night (when you are asleep), and has knowledge of all that you have done by day, then he raises (wakes) you up again that a term appointed (your life period) be fulfilled, then in the end unto Him will be your return. Then He will inform you what you used to do. 

61. He is the Irresistible, Supreme over His slaves, and He sends guardians (angels guarding and writing all of one's good and bad deeds) over you , until when death approaches one of you, Our Messengers (angel of death and his assistants) take his soul, and they never neglect their duty.

62. Then they are returned to Allh, their Maul [True Master (God), the Just Lord (to reward them)]. Surely, His is the judgement and He is the Swiftest in taking account.

63. Say (O Muhammad ): "Who rescues you from the darkness of the land and the sea (dangers like storms), when you call upon Him in humility and in secret (saying): If He (Allh) only saves us from this (danger), we shall truly be grateful."

64. Say (O Muhammad ): "Allh rescues you from it and from all (other) distresses, and yet you worship others besides Allh."

65. Say: "He has power to send torment on you from above or from under your feet, or to cover you with confusion in party strife, and make you to taste the violence of one another." See how variously We explain the Ayt (proofs, evidences, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.), so that they may understand. 

66. But your people (O Muhammad ) have denied it (the Qur'n) though it is the truth. Say: "I am not responsible for your affairs."

67. For every news there is a fact, i.e. for everything there is an appointed term (and it is also said that for every deed there is a recompense) and you will come to know.

68. And when you (Muhammad ) see those who engage in a false conversation about Our Verses (of the Qur'n) by mocking at them, stay away from them till they turn to another topic. And if Shaitn (Satan) causes you to forget, then after the remembrance sit not you in the company of those people who are the Zlimn (polytheists and wrongdoers, etc.).

69. Those who fear Allh, keep their duty to Him and avoid evil are not responsible for them (the disbelievers) in any case, but (their duty) is to remind them, that they may avoid that (mockery at the Qur'n). [The order of this Verse was cancelled (abrogated) by the Verse
