Does Allah not know what is in the hearts of men? Most certainly
Allah knows the true believers and also the hypocrites.
The unbelievers say to the faithful: 'Follow us, and we will bear
the burden of your sins.' But they will bear none of their sins. They are
surely lying.
They shall bear their own burdens, and other burdens besides. On
the Day of Resurrection, they shall be questioned about their
falsehoods.

And (tell of) Ibrahim. He said to his people; 'ServeAllah and fear
Him. That would be best for you, if you but knew it. You worship idols
besides Allah and invent falsehoods. Those whom you serve besides
Him can give you no provision. Therefore seek the bounty of Allah,
andworshipHim. Give thanks toHim, for toHimyou shall return.
'If you deny me, likewise other nations before you denied their
apostles.An apostle's duty is but to give plainwarning.'
Do they not see how Allah initiates the Creation, and then
reproduces it? That is easy enough forAllah.

Then Allah will create a later Creation, Allah has power over all
things; He punishes whom He will and shows mercy to whom He
pleases. ToHimyou shall be turned.’
