Chapter 27, Page 383, Juz 20

67. And said those who disbelieved, “Is it that, when we and our fathers become dust,-is it that we shall really be brought forth? 68. Indeed, it was promised to us and to our fathers even before this. This is nothing but the tales of the ancients.” 69. Say, “Travel in the land and see how was the fate of the sinners.” 70. And do not grieve for them, nor should your heart be straitened because of what they plan. 71. They say, “When shall this promise come to pass if you are true?” 72. Say, “It is not unlikely that some part of that (punishment) which you are asking to come soon is already following you closely.” 73. And surely, your Lord is graceful for the mankind, but most of the people are not grateful. 74. Of course, your Lord knows for sure what their hearts conceal and what they reveal. 75. There is nothing hidden in the heavens and the earth that is not (recorded) in a manifest book. 76. Surely this Qur’ān mentions to the children of Isrā’īl most of the matters in which they dispute. 77. It is guidance and mercy for the believers. 78. And surely your Lord will decide between them by His judgment, and He is the All-Mighty, the All-Knowing. 79. So trust in Allah. Surely you are on the clear truth. 80. Surely, you cannot make the dead to hear, nor can you make the deaf to hear your call when they turn their backs in retreat, 81. nor can you show the right path to the blind against their wandering astray. You can make no one to listen (to you) except those who believe in Our verses, then submit themselves (to Allah). 82. When the word will come to fall upon them, We will bring forth for them a beast from the earth who will speak to them that the human beings (i.e the infidels) did not believe in Our signs.
