[HMSajdah 41:4] Giving glad tidings and heralding warning; so most of them turned away, therefore they cannot listen (to the truth).

[HMSajdah 41:5] And they say, “Our hearts are covered against the affair you call us to, and there is deafness in our ears, and there is a barrier between us and you - therefore mind your own business, we are minding ours.”

[HMSajdah 41:6] Proclaim (O dear Prophet Mohammed - peace and blessings be upon him), “Physically I am a human like you - I receive the divine revelation that your God is only One God, therefore be upright towards Him and seek forgiveness from Him”; and woe is to the polytheists. -

[HMSajdah 41:7] Those who do not give the obligatory charity, and who deny the Hereafter.

[HMSajdah 41:11] He then inclined towards the heavens and it was smoke - thereupon He said to it and to the earth, “Both of you present yourselves, willingly or with reluctance”; they said, “We present ourselves, with zeal.”
