This is God, your Lord, there is no God but Him, the Creator of all things, so worship Him; He is in charge of everything.

No vision can take Him in, but He takes in all vision. He is the All Subtle, the All Aware.

Now clear proof has come to you from your Lord: if anyone sees it, that will be to his advantage; if anyone is blind to it, that will be to his loss- [Say], ‘I am not your guardian.’

This is how We explain Our revelations in various ways- though they will say, ‘You [Muhammad] have been studying’- to make them clear for those who know.

Follow what has been revealed to you from your Lord, there is no God but Him. Turn away from those who join other gods with Him.

If it had been God’s will, they would not have done so, but We have not made you their guardian, nor are you their keeper.

[Believers], do not revile those they call on beside God in case they, in their hostility and ignorance, revile God. To each community We make their own actions seem alluring, but in the end they will return to their Lord and He will inform them of all they did.

They swear by God with their most solemn oaths that if a miraculous sign came to them they would believe in it. Say [Prophet], ‘Signs are in the power of God alone.’ What will make you [believers] realize that even if a sign came to them they still would not believe?

We would make their hearts and their eyes turn away, just as they did not believe the first time, and leave them to flounder in their obstinacy.
