Qur'an 20091104

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

43. Or have they gods that can guard them from Us? They have no power to aid themselves, nor can they be defended from Us.

44. No, We gave the good things of this life to these men and their fathers until the period grew long for them. See they not that We reduce the land from its outlying borders? Is it then they who will win?

45. Say, "I do warn you according to revelation." But the deaf will not hear the call, when they are warned.

46. If but a breath of the Wrath of your Lord does touch them, then they will say, "Woe to us! We did wrong indeed!"

The Prophets 21:43-46

39. If only the unbelievers knew when they would not be able to ward off the fire from their faces, nor yet from their backs, and no help can reach them!

40. No, it may come to them all of a sudden and confound them. No power will they have to avert it, nor will they get respite.

41. Mocked were messengers before you, but their scoffers were hemmed in by the thing that they mocked.

42. Say, "Who can keep you safe by night and by day from the Most Gracious?" Yet they turn away from the mention of their Lord.

The Prophets 21:39-42
----------------------------------------------------------

Who can keep you safe by night and by day from the Most Gracious?

23. God cannot be questioned for God's acts, but they will be questioned.

4. Say, "My Lord knows every word in the heavens and the earth. God is the One that Hears and Knows."

The Prophets 21:1-4

75. Say, "If any man goes astray, the Most Gracious reaches out to them until they see the Warning, either in punishment or in the Moment, they will at length realise who is worst in position, and weakest in forces!"
