133. They say, "Why does he not bring us a Sign from his Lord?" Has not a Clear Sign come to them of all that was in the former Books of Revelation?

134. And if We had inflicted on them a penalty before this, they would have said, "Our Lord! If only You had sent us a messenger, we should certainly have followed Your Signs before we were humbled, and put to shame."

135. Say, "Each one is waiting. Wait you therefore, and soon shall you know who it is that is on the straight and even way, and who it is that has received guidance."

Qur'an 20090926

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

42. So his fruits were encompassed, and he remained twisting and turning his hands over what he had spent on his property, which had tumbled to pieces to its very foundations. And he could only say, "Woe is me! Would I had never ascribed partners to my Lord and Cherisher!"

43. Nor had he numbers to help him against Allah, nor was he able to deliver himself.

44. There, the protection comes from Allah, the True One. God is the Best to reward, and the Best to give success.

45. Set forth to them the similitude of the life of this world. It is like the rain which We send down from the skies: the earth's vegetation absorbs it, but it soon becomes dry stubble, which the winds do scatter. It is Allah who prevails over all things.

46. Wealth and sons are allurements of the life of this world. But the things that endure, good deeds, are best in the sight of your Lord as rewards, and best as hopes.

The Cave 18:42-46
