AlQuran.My

And We sent not down against his People, after him, any hosts from heaven, nor was it needful for Us so to do.

It was no more than a single mighty Blast, and behold! they were (like ashes) quenched and silent.

Ah! Alas for (My) Servants! There comes not an apostle to them but they mock him!

See they not how many generations before them we destroyed? Not to them will they return:

But each one of them all - will be brought before Us (for judgment).

A Sign for them is the earth that is dead: We do give it life, and produce grain therefrom, of which ye do eat.

And We produce therein orchard with date-palms and vines, and We cause springs to gush forth therein:

That they may enjoy the fruits of this (artistry): It was not their hands that made this: will they not then give thanks?

Glory to Allah, Who created in pairs all things that the earth produces, as well as their own (human) kind and (other) things of which they have no knowledge.

And a Sign for them is the Night: We withdraw therefrom the Day, and behold they are plunged in darkness;

And the sun runs his course for a period determined for him: that is the decree of (Him), the Exalted in Might, the All-Knowing.

And the Moon,- We have measured for her mansions (to traverse) till she returns like the old (and withered) lower part of a date-stalk.

It is not permitted to the Sun to catch up the Moon, nor can the Night outstrip the Day: Each (just) swims along in (its own) orbit (according to Law).
