[Mominun 23:75] And if We have mercy upon them and remove the calamity which has befallen them, they would still stubbornly persist, wandering in their rebellion.

[Mominun 23:76] And indeed We grasped them with punishment, so neither did they submit themselves to their Lord, nor do they cry humbly.

[Mominun 23:77] To the extent that when We opened the gate of a severe punishment for them, they thereupon lie despairingly in it.

Section 5

[Mominun 23:78] And it is He Who has created ears and eyes and hearts for you; very little is the right you acknowledge.

[Mominun 23:79] And it is He Who has spread you in the earth, and towards Him you are to be raised.

[Mominun 23:80] And it is He Who gives life and causes death, and for Him are the alternations of night and day; so do you not have sense?

[Mominun 23:81] On the contrary, they said the same as what the former people used to say.

[Mominun 23:82] They say, "Will we, when we die and turn into dust and bones, be raised again?"

[Mominun 23:83] "Indeed this promise was given to us and before us to our forefathers – this is nothing but stories of earlier people."

[Mominun 23:84] Say O dear Prophet (Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him), "To Whom does the earth and all that is in it belong to, if you know?"

[Mominun 23:85] Thereupon they will say, "To Allah"; proclaim, "Therefore why do you not ponder?"

[Mominun 23:86] Say, "Who is the Lord of the seven heavens, and the Lord of the Tremendous Throne?"

[Mominun 23:87] Thereupon they will say, "Such greatness is only that of Allah"; say, "So why do you not fear?"

[Mominun 23:88] Say, "In Whose hand is the control over all things, and He provides refuge, and none can provide refuge against Him, if you know?"

[Mominun 23:89] Thereupon they will say, "Such greatness is only that of Allah"; say, "Then by what magic are you deceived?"
