ثُمَّ دَمَّرْنَا الْآخَرِينَ
136. Then We destroyed the others.
وَبِاللَّيْلِ ۗ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ
138. And at night. Then will you not use reason?
مَا لَكُمْ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُونَ
154. What is [wrong] with you? How do you make judgement?
أَمْ لَكُمْ سُلْطَانٌ مُبِينٌ
156. Or do you have a clear authority?
فَأْتُوا بِكِتَابِكُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَادِقِينَ
157. Then produce your scripture, if you should be truthful.
مَا أَنْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ بِفَاتِنِينَ
162. You cannot tempt [anyone] away from Him
وَإِنْ كَانُوا لَيَقُولُونَ
167. And indeed, the disbelievers used to say,
لَوْ أَنَّ عِنْدَنَا ذِكْرًا مِنَ الْأَوَّلِينَ
168. "If we had a message from [those of] the former peoples,
لَكُنَّا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ الْمُخْلَصِينَ
169. We would have been the chosen servants of Allah."
فَكَفَرُوا بِهِ ۖ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ
170. But they disbelieved in it, so they are going to know.
