90. They say, "We shall not believe in you until you cause a spring to gush forth for us from the earth,"
91. "Or you have a garden of date trees and vines, and cause rivers to gush forth in their midst, carrying abundant water,"
92. "Or you cause the sky to fall in pieces, as you say, against us, or you bring Allah and the angels face to face,"
93. "Or you have a house adorned with gold, or you mount a ladder right into the skies. No, we shall not even believe in your mounting until you send down to us a book that we can read." Say, "Glory to my Lord! Am I aught but a man, a messenger?"
94. What kept humans back from belief when Guidance came to them was nothing but this: they said, "Has Allah sent a man to be messenger?"
95. Say, "If there were settled on earth angels walking about in peace and quiet, God would certainly sent them down from the heavens an angel for a messenger."
96. Say, "Enough is Allah for a witness between me and you, for God is Well-acquainted with God's servants, and God Sees!"

Qur'an 20090915
In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
85. They ask you concerning the Spirit. Say, "The Spirit by command of my Lord. Of knowledge, it is only a little that is communicated to you."
86. If it were Our Will, We could take away that which We have sent to you by inspiration. Then would you find none to plead your affair in that matter as against Us.
87. Except for Mercy from your Lord, for God's Bounty is indeed to you great.
88. Say, "If the whole of humans and jinns were to gather together to produce the like of this Qur'an, they could not produce the like thereof, even if they backed up each other with help and support."

Qur'an 20090914
In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
80. Say, "O my Lord! Let my entry be by the Gate of Truth and Honor, and likewise my exit by the Gate of Truth and Honor, and grant me from Your Presence an authority to aid."
81. And say, "Truth has arrived and falsehood perished, for falsehood is bound to perish."
82. We send down in the Qur'an that which is a healing and a mercy to those who believe. To the unjust it causes nothing but loss after loss.
83. Yet when We bestow Our favors on man, he turns away and becomes remote on his side, and when evil seizes him, he gives himself up to despair!
84. Say, "Everyone acts according to his own disposition, but your Lord knows best who it is that is best guided on the Way."

Qur'an 20090910
In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
56. Say, "Call on those, besides God, whom you fancy. They have neither the power to remove your troubles from you, nor to change them."
57. Those whom they call upon do desire means of access to their Lord, even those who are nearest. They hope for God's Mercy, and fear God's Wrath, for the Wrath of your Lord is something to take heed of.

49. They say, "What? When we are reduced to bones and dust, should we really be raised up, a new creation?"
50. Say, "Be you stones, or iron!"
51. Or created matter which, in your minds, is hardest. Then will they say, "Who will cause us to return?" Say, "God who created you first!" Then will they wag their heads towards you and say, "When will that be?" Say, "Maybe it will be quite soon!"

Qur'an 20090908
In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
41. We have explained variously in this Qur'an, in order that they may receive admonition, but it only increases their flight.
42. Say, "If there had been gods with God as they say, behold! They would certainly have sought out a way to the Lord of the Throne!"

Qur'an 20090829
In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
101. When We substitute one revelation for another, and Allah knows best what God reveals, they say, "You are a forger," but most of them understand not.
102. Say, "The Holy Spirit has brought the revelation from your Lord in Truth, in order to strengthen those who believe, and as a Guide and Glad Tidings to Muslims."
103. We know indeed that they say, "It is a man who teaches him." The tongue of him they wickedly point to is notably foreign, while this is Arabic, pure and clear.
104. Those who believe not in the Signs of Allah, Allah will not guide them, and theirs will be a grievous penalty.
105. It is those who believe not in the Signs of Allah that forge falsehood, it is they who lie!
The Bees 16:101-105
