21:2No fresh reminder comes to them from their Lord, but they listen to it playfully.

21:6None of the towns We destroyed before them had believed. Will they, then, believe?

21:8We did not make them mere bodies that ate no food, nor were they immortal.

21:9Then We fulfilled Our promise to them, and We saved them together with whomever We willed, and We destroyed the extravagant.

21:15This continued to be their cry, until We made them silent ashes.

21:16We did not create the sky and the earth and what is between them for amusement.

21:21Or have they taken to themselves gods from the earth who resurrect?

21:22If there were in them gods other than God, they would have gone to ruin. So glory be to God, Lord of the Throne, beyond what they allege.

21:24Or have they taken, besides Him, other gods? Say, “Bring your proof. This is a message for those with me, and a message of those before me.” But most of them do not know the truth, so they turn away.

21:28He knows what is before them, and what is behind them; and they do not intercede except for him whom He approves; and they tremble in awe of Him.

21:29And whoever of them says, “I am a god besides Him,” We will reward him with Hell. Thus We reward the wrongdoers.

21:30Do the disbelievers not see that the heavens and the earth were one mass, and We tore them apart? And We made from water every living thing. Will they not believe?

21:31And We placed on earth stabilizers, lest it sways with them, and We placed therein signposts and passages, that they may be guided.

21:40In fact, it will come upon them suddenly, and bewilder them. They will not be able to repel it, and they will not be reprieved.

21:43Or do they have gods who can defend them against Us? They cannot help themselves, nor will they be protected from Us.

21:44We have given these enjoyments, and their ancestors, until time grew long upon them. Do they not see how We gradually reduce the land from its extremities? Are they then the victors?

21:46And when a breath of your Lord’s punishment touches them, they say, “Woe to us, we were truly wicked.”

21:53They said, “We found our parents worshiping them.”

21:56He said, “Your Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the earth, the One who created them, and I bear witness to that.

21:58So he reduced them into pieces, except for their biggest, that they may return to it.

21:60They said, “We heard a youth mentioning them. He is called Abraham.”

21:63He said, “But it was this biggest of them that did it. Ask them, if they can speak.”

21:70They planned to harm him, but We made them the worst losers.

21:73And We made them leaders, guiding by Our command; and We inspired them to do good works, and to observe the prayer, and to give out charity. They were devoted servants to Us.

21:77And We supported him against the people who rejected Our signs. They were an evil people, so We drowned them all.

21:82And of the devils were some that dived for him, and performed other, lesser tasks. But We kept them restrained.

21:84So We answered him, lifted his suffering, and restored his family to him, and their like with them—a mercy from Us, and a reminder for the worshipers.

21:86And We admitted them into Our mercy. They were among the righteous.

21:90So We answered him, and gave him John. And We cured his wife for him. They used to vie in doing righteous deeds, and used to call on Us in love and awe, and they used to humble themselves to Us.

21:93But they splintered themselves into factions. They will all return to Us.

21:103The Supreme Fear will not worry them, and the angels will receive them: “This is your Day which you were promised.”
