Al-An'am 6:39 والذين كذبوا باياتنا صم وبكم في الظلمات من يشا الله يضلله ومن يشا يجعله على صراط مستقيم ٣٩

Chapter 6, Page 132, Juz 7

36. Only those respond who listen (to seek the truth). As for the dead, Allah shall raise them, after which they shall be returned to Him. 37. They say, “Why is it that no sign (of our choice) has been sent down to him from his Lord?” Say, “Allah is surely powerful enough to send down a sign.” But most of them do not know. 38. There is no creature moving on the earth, nor a bird flying on its two wings, but they are all communities like you. We have not missed anything in the Book. Then, to their Lord all of them shall be gathered. 39. Those who gave the lie to Our signs are deaf and dumb, in layers of darkness. He lets whomsoever He wills go astray, and brings whomsoever He wills on the straight path. 40. Say, “Tell me if the punishment of Allah comes to you or the Hour befalls you, would you call someone other than Allah, if you are truthful?” 41. Rather, Him alone you will call and He, if He wills, shall remove what you call Him for, and you will forget those you associate with Him.
