14:3Those who prefer the present life to the Hereafter, and repel from the path of God, and seek to make it crooked—these are far astray.

14:9Has not the story reached you, of those before you, the people of Noah, and Aad, and Thamood—and those after them? None knows them except God. Their messengers came to them with the clear proofs, but they tried to silence them, and said, “We reject what you are sent with, and we are in serious doubt regarding what you are calling us to.”

14:14“And We will settle you in the land after them. That is for him who fears My Majesty, and fears My threats.”

14:27God gives firmness to those who believe, with the firm word, in this life, and in the Hereafter. And God leads the wicked astray. God does whatever He wills.
