Hud 11:8 ولين اخرنا عنهم العذاب الى امة معدودة ليقولن ما يحبسه الا يوم ياتيهم ليس مصروفا عنهم وحاق بهم ما كانوا به يستهزيون ٨

11:8
وَلَئِنۡ
أَخَّرۡنَا
عَنۡهُمُ
ٱلۡعَذَابَ

أُمَّةٖ

مَا
يَحۡبِسُهُۥٓۗ
أَلَا
يَوۡمَ
يَأۡتِيهِمۡ
لَيۡسَ
مَصۡرُوفًا
عَنۡهُمۡ
وَحَاقَ
بِهِم
مَّا
كَانُواْ
بِهِۦ
يَسۡتَهۡزِءُونَ

Chapter 11, Page 222, Juz 12

6. There is not a creature that moves on earth whose provision is not His concern. He knows where it lives and its [final] resting place: it is all [there] in a clear record. 7. It is He who created the heavens and the earth in six Days––His rule extends over the waters too––so as to test which of you does best. Yet [Prophet], if you say to them, ‘You will be resurrected after death,’ the disbelievers are sure to answer, ‘This is clearly nothing but sorcery.’ 8. If We defer their punishment for a determined time, they are sure to say, ‘What is holding it back?’ But on the Day it comes upon them, nothing will divert it from them; what they mocked will be all around them.
