33. Say: O Concourse of the Furqán! The Letters hath indeed risen unto their
upright positions and the Words unto their seats, yet thou art unto this very day
unable to comprehend. Art thou not anticipating the day when the Caller shall call
out or listening for the Shout in truth? Why thou art, even unto this very day,
wrapped in the veils of thine own selves. Arise from the couches of heedlessness and
depart from ignorance and cruelty! Awaken then to the Remembrance of God, that
would be best for thee should ye desire to return unto the sheltering clouds of
nearness to God. Do ye not reflect upon the generations of the past, or as to what
hath been imposed upon them as a consequence of their opposition to the
Messengers of God and for turning away from His Signs? Despite the fact that God
hath never summoned a Messenger except, and indeed, there hath been sent down
with Him the miracle of fire wherewith He causeth the transgressors to be crippled,
and each Messenger hath brought Glad Tidings of the Messenger that was to come
after Him, a Promise of each and every One of Them.
