AlQuran.My

If We had mercy on them and removed the distress which is on them, they would obstinately persist in their transgression, wandering in distraction to and fro.

We inflicted Punishment on them, but they humbled not themselves to their Lord, nor do they submissively entreat (Him)!-

Until We open on them a gate leading to a severe Punishment: then Lo! they will be plunged in despair therein!

It is He Who has created for you (the faculties of) hearing, sight, feeling and understanding: little thanks it is ye give!

And He has multiplied you through the earth, and to Him shall ye be gathered back.

It is He Who gives life and death, and to Him (is due) the alternation of Night and Day: will ye not then understand?

On the contrary they say things similar to what the ancients said.

They say: "What! when we die and become dust and bones, could we really be raised up again?

"Such things have been promised to us and to our fathers before! they are nothing but tales of the ancients!"

Say: "To whom belong the earth and all beings therein? (say) if ye know!"

They will say, "To Allah." say: "Yet will ye not receive admonition?"

Say: "Who is the Lord of the seven heavens, and the Lord of the Throne (of Glory) Supreme?"

They will say, "(They belong) to Allah." Say: "Will ye not then be filled with awe?"

Say: "Who is it in whose hands is the governance of all things,- who protects (all), but is not protected (of any)? (say) if ye know."

They will say, "(It belongs) to Allah." Say: "Then how are ye deluded?"
