Saba 34:45 وكذب الذين من قبلهم وما بلغوا معشار ما اتيناهم فكذبوا رسلي فكيف كان نكير ٤٥

34:45

وَكَذَّبَ

ٱلَّذِينَ

مِن

قَبۡلِهِمۡ

وَمَا

بَلَغُواْ

مِعۡشَارَ

مَآ

ءَاتَيۡنَٰهُمۡ

فَكَذَّبُواْ

رُسُلِيۖ

فَكَيۡفَ

كَانَ

نَكِيرِ

Those who lived before them also denied the truth- these people have not attained even a tenth of what We gave their predecessors- they, too, rejected My messengers, and how terrible My condemnation was!

قَالُواْ مَا هَـذَا إِلاَّ رَجُلٌ

Chapter 34, Page 433, Juz 22

37. Neither wealth nor children will bring you nearer to Us, but those who believe and do good deeds will have multiple rewards for what they have done, and will live safely in the lofty dwellings of Paradise, 38. whereas those who work against Our messages, seeking to undermine them, will be summoned to punishment.’ 39. Say, ‘My Lord gives in abundance to whichever of His servants He will, and sparingly to whichever He will; He will replace whatever you give in alms; He is the best of providers.’ 40. On the Day He gathers them all together, He will say to the angels, ‘Was it you these people worshipped?’ 41. They will reply, ‘May You be exalted! You are our supporter against them! Really, they worshipped the jinn- most of them believed in them.’ 42. ‘So today neither of you has any power to benefit or harm the other,’ We shall tell the evildoers, ‘Taste the torment of the fire which you called a lie.’ 43. When Our messages are recited to them, clear as they are, they say, ‘This is only a man who wants to turn you away from what your forefathers worshipped,’ and, ‘This [Quran] is nothing but lies he has made up.’ When the Truth comes to the disbelievers, they say, ‘This is just plain sorcery,’ 44. though We have not given them any books to study nor sent any warner before you. 45. Those who lived before them also denied the truth- these people have not attained even a tenth of what We gave their predecessors- they, too, rejected My messengers, and how terrible My condemnation was!
