Saheeh International

So if you are in doubt, [O Muḥammad], about that which We have revealed to you, then ask those who have been reading the Scripture before you. The truth has certainly come to you from your Lord, so never be among the doubters.

And never be of those who deny the signs of Allāh and [thus] be among the losers.1

Indeed, those upon whom the word [i.e., decree] of your Lord has come into effect will not believe,

     ﯿ   

Saheeh International

Even if every sign should come to them, until they see the painful punishment.

Then has there not been a [single] city that believed so its faith benefited it except the people of Jonah? When they believed, We removed from them the punishment of disgrace in worldly life and gave them enjoyment [i.e., provision] for a time.

               

Saheeh International

And had your Lord willed, those on earth would have believed - all of them entirely. Then, [O Muḥammad], would you compel the people in order that they become believers?

Saheeh International

And it is not for a soul [i.e., anyone] to believe except by permission of Allāh, and He will place defilement1 upon those who will not use reason.

              

Saheeh International

Say, "Observe what is in the heavens and the earth." But of no avail will be signs or warners to a people who do not believe.

               

Saheeh International

So do they wait except for like [what occurred in] the days of those who passed on before them? Say, "Then wait; indeed, I am with you among those who wait."

          

Saheeh International

Then We will save Our messengers and those who have believed. Thus, it is an obligation upon Us that We save the believers.1
