40:4None argues against God’s revelations except those who disbelieve. So do not be impressed by their activities in the land.

40:6Thus the sentence of your Lord became realized against those who disbelieve, that they are to be inmates of the Fire.

40:7Those who carry the Throne, and those around it, glorify their Lord with praise, and believe in Him, and ask for forgiveness for those who believe: “Our Lord, You have encompassed everything in mercy and knowledge; so forgive those who repent and follow Your path, and protect them from the agony of the Blaze.

40:10Those who disbelieved will be addressed, “The loathing of God is greater than your loathing of yourselves—for you were invited to the faith, but you refused.”

40:12That is because when God alone was called upon, you disbelieved; but when others were associated with Him, you believed. Judgment rests with God the Sublime, the Majestic.

40:14So call upon God, with sincere devotion to Him, even though the disbelievers resent it.

40:22That is because their messengers used to come to them with clear proofs, but they disbelieved, so God seized them. He is Strong, Severe in retribution.

40:25Then, when he came to them with the truth from Us, they said, “Kill the sons of those who have believed with him, and spare their daughters.” But the scheming of the unbelievers can only go astray.

40:27Moses said, “I have sought the protection of my Lord and your Lord, from every tyrant who does not believe in the Day of Account.”

40:30The one who had believed said, “O my people, I fear for you the like of the day of the confederates.

40:35Those who argue against God’s revelations, without any proof having come to them—a heinous sin in the sight of God, and of those who believe. Thus God seals the heart of every proud bully.

40:38The one who had believed said, “O my people, follow me, and I will guide you to the path of rectitude.”

40:40Whoever commits a sin will be repaid only with its like. But whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, and is a believer—these will enter Paradise, where they will be provided for without account.

40:50They will say, “Did not your messengers come to you with clear signs?” They will say, “Yes.” They will say, “Then pray, but the prayers of the disbelievers will always be in vain.”

40:51Most surely We will support Our messengers and those who believe, in this life, and on the Day the witnesses arise.

40:58Not equal are the blind and the seeing. Nor are those who believe and work righteousness equal to the sinners. How little you reflect.

40:59Indeed, the Hour is coming; there is no doubt about it; but most people do not believe.

40:74Instead of God?” They will say, “They have abandoned us. In fact, we were praying to nothing before.” Thus God sends the disbelievers astray.

40:84Then, when they witnessed Our might, they said, “We believe in God alone, and we reject what we used to associate with Him.”

40:85But their faith could not help them once they witnessed Our might. This has been God’s way of dealing with His servants. And there and then the disbelievers lost.
