21:16
21:18
We have destroyed many a sinful nation and replaced them by other
men. And when they felt Our might they fled from (their cities). (It
was said to them): 'Do not run away. Return to your comforts and your
dwellings, so that youmay be questioned!'
They said: 'Woe to us. we have done wrong!' And this they kept
repeating untilWemowed themdown and put out their light.
It was not in sport that We created the heavens and the earth and all
that lies between them. Had it been Our will to find a pastime, We
could have found one near at hand ifWe were to do it.
We will hurl Truth at Falsehood, until Truth shall triumph and
Falsehood be no more. Woe shall befall you, for all (the falsehoods)
you have uttered.
His are all who dwell in the heavens and the earth. Those who stand
in His presence are not too proud to worship Him, nor are they ever
wearied. They praise Himday and night, unflaggingly.
Or have they chosen earthly deities?And (can) these deities restore
the dead to life? Had there been other gods in heaven or earth besides
Allah, there would have been confusion in both. Exalted be Allah,
Lord of the Throne, above those (falsehoods) they ascribe toHim.
None shall question Him about His works, but they shall be
questioned. Have they chosen other gods besides Him?
Say: 'Show us your proof. Here is the Message (the Quran) of those
with me and the Message of those before me.' But most of them do not
know the truth, and this is why they turn away.
We sent no apostle before you to whom We did not send this
