بِمَا
قَدَّمَتْ
أَيْدِيهِمْ
فَإِنَّ
الْإِنسَانَ
كَفُورٌ

(Muhammad), if they turn away from your message, know that We have not sent you as their keeper. Your duty is only to deliver the message. When We grant mercy to the human being, he becomes joyous, but when he is afflicted by evil as a result of his own deeds, he proves to be ungrateful.
