Chapter 37, Page 452, Juz 23

167. And indeed they used to say: 168. If we had but a reminder from the men of old 169. We would be single-minded slaves of Allah. 170. Yet (now that it is come) they disbelieve therein; but they will come to know. 171. And verily Our word went forth of old unto Our bondmen sent (to warn) 172. That they verily would be helped, 173. And that Our host, they verily would be the victors. 174. So withdraw from them (O Muhammad) awhile, 175. And watch, for they will (soon) see. 176. Would they hasten on Our doom? 177. But when it cometh home to them, then it will be a hapless morn for those who have been warned. 178. Withdraw from them awhile 179. And watch, for they will (soon) see. 180. Glorified be thy Lord, the Lord of Majesty, from that which they attribute (unto Him) 181. And peace be unto those sent (to warn). 182. And praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds!
