21:3Their hearts distracted, the wrongdoers confer secretly, “Is this anything but a mortal like you? Will you take to sorcery, with open-eyes?”

21:7We did not send before you except men, whom We inspired. Ask the people of knowledge, if you do not know.

21:10We have sent down to you a Book, containing your message. Do you not understand?

21:13Do not run, but come back to your luxuries, and to your homes, that you may be questioned.

21:18In fact, We hurl the truth against falsehood, and it crushes it, so it vanishes. Woe unto you, for what you describe.

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.

21:25We never sent a messenger before you without inspiring him that: “There is no god but I, so worship Me.”

21:34We did not grant immortality to any human being before you. Should you die, are they then the immortal?

21:35Every soul will taste death. We burden you with adversity and prosperity—a test. And to Us you will be returned.

21:36When those who disbelieve see you, they treat you only with ridicule: “Is this the one who mentions your gods?” And they reject the mention of the Merciful.

21:37The human being was created of haste. I will show you My signs, so do not seek to rush Me.

21:38And they say, “When will this promise come true, if you are truthful?”

21:41Messengers before you were also ridiculed, but those who jeered were surrounded by what they had ridiculed.

21:42Say, “Who guards you against the Merciful by night and by day?” But they turn away from the mention of their Lord.

21:45Say, “I am warning you through inspiration.” But the deaf cannot hear the call when they are being warned.

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

21:50This too is a blessed message that We revealed. Are you going to deny it?

21:52When he said to his father and his people, “What are these statues to which you are devoted?”

21:54He said, “You and your parents are in evident error.”

21:55They said, “Are you telling us the truth, or are you just playing?”

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.

21:57“By God, I will have a plan for your statues after you have gone away.”

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

21:62They said, “Are you the one who did this to our gods, O Abraham?”

21:64Then they turned to one another, and said, “You yourselves are the wrongdoers.”

21:65But they reverted to their old ideas: “You certainly know that these do not speak.”

21:66He said, “Do you worship, instead of God, what can neither benefit you in anything, nor harm you?

21:67Fie on you, and on what you worship instead of God. Do you not understand?”

21:68They said, “Burn him and support your gods, if you are going to act.”

21:80And We taught him the making of shields for you, to protect you from your violence. Are you, then, appreciative?

21:83And Job, when he cried out to his Lord: “Great harm has afflicted me, and you are the Most Merciful of the merciful.”

21:87And Jonah, when he stormed out in fury, thinking We had no power over him. But then He cried out in the darkness, “There is no god but You! Glory to You! I was one of the wrongdoers!”

21:89And Zechariah, when he called out to his Lord, “My Lord, do not leave me alone, even though you are the Best of heirs.”

21:92This community of yours is one community, and I am your Lord, so worship Me.

21:98You and what you worship besides God are fuel for Hell. You will descend into it.

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

21:107We did not send you except as mercy to mankind.

21:108Say, “It is revealed to me that your God is One God. Are you going to submit?”

21:109But if they turn away, say, “I have informed you sufficiently. Although I do not know whether what you are promised is near or far.”

21:110He knows what is said openly, and He knows what you conceal.

21:111“And I do not know whether it is perhaps a trial for you, and an enjoyment for a while.”

21:112He said, “My Lord, judge with justice.” And, “Our Lord is the Gracious, Whose help is sought against what you allege.”
