Qur'an 20090309

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

39. Those who reject Our Signs are deaf and dumb, in the midst of darkness profound. Whom Allah wills, God leaves to wander, Whom God wills, God places on the Way that is straight.

40. Say, "Do you think, if there comes upon you the Wrath of Allah, or the Hour, would you call upon other than Allah? If you are truthful!"

41. No, on God would you call, and if it be God's Will, God would remove what occasioned your call upon God, and you would forget those you join with God!

42. Before you, We sent to many nations, and We afflicted those nations with suffering and adversity, that they might learn humility.

43. When the suffering reached them from Us, why then did they not learn humility? On the contrary, their hearts became hard, and Satan made their acts seem alluring to them.

44. When they forgot the warning they had received, We opened to them the gates of all things, until, in the midst of their enjoyment of Our gifts, of a sudden, We called them to account, when lo! They were plunged into despair!

45. Of the wrongdoers the last remnant was cut off. Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher of the Worlds.

46. Say, "Do you think, if Allah took away your hearing and your sight, and sealed up your hearts, who, a god other than Allah, could restore them to you?" See how We explain the Signs in various ways. Yet they turn aside.

47. Say, "Do you think, if the Punishment of Allah comes to you, whether suddenly or openly, will any be destroyed except those who do wrong?"

Do you think, if Allah took away your hearing and your sight, and sealed up your hearts, who, a god other than Allah, could restore them to you?

Do you think, if the Punishment of Allah comes to you, whether suddenly or openly, will any be destroyed except those who do wrong?
