Chapter 25, Page 362, Juz 19

21. And those who do not expect the meeting with Us say, "Why were not angels sent down to us, or [why] do we [not] see our Lord?" They have certainly become arrogant within themselves and [become] insolent with great insolence. 22. The day they see the angels - no good tidings will there be that day for the criminals, and [the angels] will say, "Prevented and inaccessible." 23. And We will approach [i.e., regard] what they have done of deeds and make them as dust dispersed. 24. The companions of Paradise, that Day, are [in] a better settlement and better resting place.
