Yellow, theywould still continue to be ungrateful.
You cannot make the dead hear you, nor can you make the deaf
hear your call if they turn their backs and give no heed; nor can you
guide the blind out of their error. None shall give ear to you save those
who believe inOur revelations, and are submissive toOur will.
Allah creates you weak: after weakness He gives you strength,
and after strength infirmity and grey hairs. He creates whatever He
will. He is theAll-Knowing, theAlmighty.
When the Hour of Doom strikes, the wrongdoers will swear that
they had stayed but one hour. Thus they are ever deceived.
But those to whom knowledge and faith have been given will say:
'You have stayed in Allah's Book till the Day of Resurrection. This is
the Day of Resurrection: yet you did not know it.'
On that day, their pleas shall not avail the wrongdoers, nor shall
they be asked tomake amends.
In this Quran We have set forth for men all manner of examples.
Yet if you recite to them a single verse, the unbelievers will surely say:
'You are preaching lies.' Thus Allah seals the hearts of ignorant men.
Therefore, have patience, Allah's promise is true. Let not those who
have no certaintymake you impatient.
