Al-Furqan 25:21 ۞ وقال الذين لا يرجون لقاءنا لولا انزل علينا الملايكة او نرى ربنا لقد استكبروا في انفسهم وعتوا عتوا كبيرا ٢١
۞ وَقَالَ
ٱلَّذِينَ
لَا
يَرۡجُونَ
لِقَآءَنَا
لَوۡلَآ
أُنزِلَ
عَلَيۡنَا
ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ
أَوۡ
نَرَىٰ
رَبَّنَاۗ
لَقَدِ
ٱسۡتَكۡبَرُواْ
فِيٓ
أَنفُسِهِمۡ
وَعَتَوۡ
عُتُوّٗا
كَبِيرٗا
