earth would have believed, all of them together. So, will you (O Muhammad ) then compel mankind, until they become believers.

100. It is not for any person to believe, except by the Leave of Allh, and He will put the wrath on those who are heedless.

101. Say: "Behold all that is in the heavens and the earth," but neither Ayt (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) nor warners benefit those who believe not.

102. Then do they wait for (anything) save for (destruction) like the days of the men who passed away before them? Say: "Wait then, I am (too) with you among those who wait."

103. Then (in the end) We save Our Messengers and those who believe! Thus it is incumbent upon Us to save the believers.

104. Say (O Muhammad ): "O you mankind! If you are in doubt as to my religion (Islm), then (know that) I will never worship those whom you worship, besides Allh. But I worship Allh Who causes you to die, I am commanded to be one of the believers.

105. "And (it is inspired to me): Direct your face (O Muhammad ) entirely towards the religion Hanifa (Islmic Monotheism, i.e. to worship none but Allh Alone), and never be one of the Mushrikn (those who ascribe partners to Allh, polytheists, idolaters, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allh, and those who worship others along with Allh).

106. "And invoke not besides Allh, any that will neither profit you, nor hurt you, but if (in case) you did so, you shall certainly be one of the Zlimn (polytheists and wrong-doers). "

107. And if Allh touches you with hurt, there is none who can remove it but He; and if He intends any good for you, there is none who can repel His Favour which He causes it to reach whomsoever of His slaves He will. And He is the Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

108. . Say: "O you mankind! Now truth (i.e. the Qur'n and Prophet Muhammad ), has come to you from your Lord. So whosoever receives guidance, he does so for the good of his own self, and whosoever goes astray, he does so to his own loss, and I am not (set) over you as a Wakl (disposer of affairs to oblige you for guidance)."

109. And (O Muhammad ), follow the inspiration sent unto you, and be patient till Allh gives judgement. And He is the Best of judges.
