Though We had mercy on them and relieved them of the harm afflicting them, they still would wander blindly on in their contumacy

Already have We grasped them with punishment, but they humble not themselves unto their Lord, nor do they pray

Until, when We open for them the gate of extreme punishment, behold! they are aghast thereat

He it is Who hath created for you ears and eyes and hearts. Small thanks give ye

And He it is Who hath sown you broadcast in the earth, and unto Him ye will be gathered

And He it is Who giveth life and causeth death, and His is the difference of night and day. Have ye then no sense

Nay, but they say the like of that which said the men of old

They say: When we are dead and have become (mere) dust and bones, shall we then, forsooth, be raised again

We were already promised this, we and our forefathers. Lo! this is naught but fables of the men of old

Say: Unto Whom (belongeth) the earth and whosoever is therein, if ye have knowledge

They will say: Unto Allah. Say: Will ye not then remember

Say: Who is Lord of the seven heavens, and Lord of the Tremendous Throne

They will say: Unto Allah (all that belongeth). Say: Will ye not then keep duty (unto Him)

Say: In Whose hand is the dominion over all things and He protecteth, while against Him there is no protection, if ye have knowledge

They will say: Unto Allah (all that belongeth). Say: How then are ye bewitched
