they will have no allies to help them against God. There is no way [forward] for those God allows to stray.

So [people] respond to your Lord before there comes a Day that cannot, against God’s will, be averted- you will have no refuge on that Day, and no possibility of denying [your sins].

God has control of the heavens and the earth; He creates whatever He will- He grants female offspring to whoever He will, male to whoever He will,
