211. Neither would it suit them, nor they can (produce it).
   
 
212. Verily, they have been removed far from hearing it.
   
 
213. So invoke not with Allah another ilah (god) lest you be among those who receive punishment.
   
 
214. And warn your tribe [O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)] of near kindred.
   
 
215. And be kind and humble to the believers who follow you.
   
 
216. Then if they disobey you, say: "I am innocent of what you do."
   
 
217. And put your trust in the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful,
   
 
218. Who sees you [O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)] when you stand up (alone at night for Tahajjud prayers).
   
 
219. And your movements among those who fall prostrate (along with you to Allah in the five compulsory congregational prayers).
   
 
220. Verily! He, only He, is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower.
   
 
221. Shall I inform you (O people!) upon whom the Shayatin (devils) descend?
   
 
222. They descend on every lying (one who tells lies), sinful person.
   
 
223. Who gives ear (to the devils and they pour what they may have heard of the unseen from the angels), and most of them are liars.
   
 
224. As for the poets, the erring follow them,
   
 
225. See you not that they speak about every subject (praising others right or wrong) in their poetry?
   
 
226. And that they say what they do not do.
   
 
227. Except those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah Islamic Monotheism), and do righteous deeds, and remember Allah much, and reply back (in poetry) to the unjust poetry (which the pagan poets utter against the Muslims). And those who do wrong will come to know by what overturning they will be overturned.
