Nor did your Lord destroy the villages until He had sent a Messenger to its mother village reciting to them Our verses. We never destroyed villages unless their inhabitants were harmdoers. (59)

The things you have been given, and its adornments, are but the enjoyment of this present life. What is with Allah is better and everlasting. Do you not understand? (60)

Is he to whom We promised a fine promise and receives it, like he who has been given the enjoyment of this present life, then on the Day of Resurrection shall be among those that are arraigned? (61)

On that Day He will call to them, saying: 'Where are those whom you alleged to be My associates? ' (62)

Those against whom the Word is realized shall say: 'Our Lord, those whom we led astray, we led them astray even as we ourselves were astray. We are quit of them to You; it was not us that they worshipped. ' (63)

It will be said to them: 'Call on your associates! ' And they will call on them, but they will not respond to them, and they shall see the punishment if only they had been guided. (64)

On that Day He will call to them and He will say: 'What response did you give Our Messengers? ' (65)

And on that Day the news will be blinded for them, and they will not ask each other. (66)

But, as for he who repents and believes, and does good deeds, he will be among those who prosper. (67)

Your Lord creates whosoever He will and He chooses the choice was not theirs (the unbelievers). Exalted is Allah, above that they associate! (68)
