If they call you a liar [Prophet], many messengers before you were also called liars: it is to God that all things will be returned.

People! God’s promise is true, so do not let the present life deceive you. Do not let the Deceiver deceive you about God:

Satan is your enemy––so treat him as an enemy––and invites his followers only to enter the blazing fire.

Those who disbelieve will be punished severely; those who believe and do good deeds will be forgiven, and richly rewarded.

What about those whose evil deeds are made alluring to them so that they think they are good? God leaves whoever He will to stray and guides whoever He will. [Prophet], do not waste your soul away with regret for them: God knows exactly what they do.

It is God who sends forth the winds; they raise up the clouds; We drive them to a dead land and with them revive the earth after its death: such will be the Resurrection.

If anyone desires power, all power belongs to God; good words rise up to Him and He lifts up the righteous deed, but a severe torment awaits those who plot evil and their plotting will come to nothing.

It is God who created you from dust and later from a drop of fluid; then He made you into two sexes; no female conceives or gives birth without His knowledge; no person grows old or has his life cut short, except in accordance with a Record: all this is easy for God.
