15.41 . He said : This is a right course incumbent upon Me :
15.42 . Lo! as for My slaves , thou hast no power over any of them save such of the froward as follow thee ,
15.43 . And lo! for all such , hell will be the promised place .
15.44 . It hath seven gates , and each gate hath an appointed portion .
15.45 . Lo! those who ward off ( evil ) are among gardens and watersprings .
15.46 . ( And it is said unto them ) : Enter them in peace , secure .
15.47 . And We remove whatever rancor may be in their breasts . As brethren , face to face , ( they rest ) on couches raised .
15.48 . Toil cometh not unto them there , nor will they be expelled from thence .
15.49 . Announce , ( O Muhammad ) unto My slaves that verily I am the Forgiving , the Merciful .
15.50 . And that My doom is the dolorous doom .
15.51 . And tell them of Abraham ' s guests ,
15.52 . ( How ) when they came in unto him , and said : Peace . He said : Lo! we are afraid of you .
15.53 . They said : Be not afraid! Lo! we bring thee good tidings of a boy possessing wisdom .
15.54 . He said : Bring ye me good tidings ( of a son ) when old age hath overtaken me? Of what then can ye bring good tidings?
15.55 . They said : We bring thee good tidings in truth . So be not thou of the despairing .
15.56 . He said : And who despaireth not the mercy of his Lord save those who are astray?
15.57 . He said : And afterward what is your business , O ye messengers ( of Allah ) ?
15.58 . They said : We have been sent unto a guilty folk .
15.59 . ( All ) save the family of Lot . Them we shall deliver everyone ,
15.60 . Except his wife , of whom We had decreed that she should be of those who stay behind .
