16:1The command of God has come, so do not rush it. Glory be to Him; exalted above what they associate.

16:17Is He who creates like him who does not create? Will you not take a lesson?

16:35The idolaters say, “Had God willed, we would not have worshiped anything besides Him, neither us, nor our ancestors, nor would we have prohibited anything besides His prohibitions.” Those before them did likewise. Are the messengers responsible for anything but clear communication?

16:38And they swear by God with their most solemn oaths, “God will not resurrect anyone who dies.” Yes indeed, it is a promise binding on Him, but most people do not know.

16:52To Him belongs everything in the heavens and the earth; and to Him obedience is due always. Do you, then, fear anyone other than God?

16:53Whatever blessing you have is from God. And when harm touches you, it is to Him that you groan.

16:59He hides from the people because of the bad news given to him. Shall he keep it in humiliation, or bury it in the dust? Evil is the decision they make.

16:97Whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, while being a believer, We will grant him a good life—and We will reward them according to the best of what they used to do.

16:103We are well aware that they say, “It is a human being who is teaching him.” But the tongue of him they allude to is foreign, while this is a clear Arabic tongue.

16:113A messenger from among them had come to them, but they denounced him, so the punishment seized them in the midst of their wrongdoing.

16:114Eat of the lawful and good things God has provided for you, and be thankful for God’s blessings, if it is Him that you serve.

16:121Thankful for His blessings. He chose him, and guided him to a straight path.

16:122And We gave him goodness in this world, and in the Hereafter he will be among the righteous.
