The Majestic Quran

those who wasted the opportunity of life . 10 Indeed We revealed a Book to you that mentions you too ! 60 Why do you not understand? T D 11 We destroyed many towns of the sinners, and afterwards raised up other people in their place. 12 When they sensed our punishment coming they fled, 13 and We said : “Do not run away; come back to the places of your enjoyment and homes so you may be questioned.” 14 They said, “Suffering has come upon us; we were evildoers.” 15 They screamed till We made them like dried up stubble. L , 16 We didn’t create the Heavens and the Earth and what is between the two as a sport. 17 If We wanted a pastime then We would have found it within Us, were We to do such a frivolous thing. 18 No, We pitched the truth against falsehood, so it wiped it out; falsehood is weak. For you is Hel l 61 for the things you attributed to God. 19 Everything in the Heavens and the Earth belongs to Him; those near Him are not arrogant about worshipping Him, nor do they get tired. 20 They are always glorifying Him, night and day, never growing weary. 21 Or have they taken gods from the Earth who can resurrect? T C 22 If there were gods other than God, then there would be devastation in the Heavens and the Earth . Glory to God, Lord of the Throne, He isn’t the way they describe Him. 23 He won’t be questioned about what He does, but they’ll be questioned! 24 Or have they taken gods besides Him? Say: “Bring your proof; this is a reminder for those who are with me and a reminder for those before me,” but most of them don’t know the truth, they have turned away. 25 Every messenger before you was inspired to say: “There is no god but Me, so worship Me.” 26 They said, “The Kind Lord has a child.” Glory to Him, they are honourable servants, 62 27 who don’t speak before He speaks and obey His command. 28 God knows what is in front and behind them, and they will not intercede except for him who He is pleased with, since they are in fear of Him. 29 If any among them claimed, “I am god beside Him,” then We shall punish him in Hell; that’s how We treat the evildoers.
