Q: Why should the disblievers contemplate about Allah and the Qur'an?
A: Say (Order from Allah to Muhammad): I do advise you with one (advice): To make an effort (to think) about Allah, in pair or individually and then to contemplate that your companion (Muhammad) is not possessed (controlled by evil); Yet he is only a warner to you of a coming severe punishment. Say: I have not asked you for a reward which is yours; My reward is only due from Allah and He is A Witness over everything. Say: My God casts away (falsehood) with The Truth; He is The All-Knowing of the Unseen. Say: The Truth has come and nothing will start the falsehood (disbelieving) nor will it repeat it. Say: If I (Muhammad) misguide; Indeed I will but misguide my own self; And if I am guided it is with what My God is revealing (Qur'an) to me; He is Listening and Near. And only if you could see (on Day of Judgment) when they (disbelievers) are terrorized and there is no escape and they were taken (to Hell) from a near-by place (where they were judged). And they will say: We have faith in it (The Truth) and how could they get engaged (in Truth) from a far away place (The Other World)? And they had before disbelieved in it (Truth) and they were abusing the Unseen (Allah, His Message and messengers) from a far away place (Life). And it was separated between them and what they wish, as was done with their parties (Pharaoh etc): They were in questionable doubt!

Q: Some people say there is no God and some say there is a God but still they partner with Him by praying to the names of other gods or masters, are they confused?
A: Say (order from Allah to Muhammad) who is the God of the Heavens and the earth? Say: Allah. Say: And you have taken ,leaving Him (Allah), masters who do not own the power to make benefit or harm to their ownselves. Say: Is the blind equal to the one who can see? Or are the depths of darkness equal to the light? Or did they (disbelievers) make with Allah partners who created like His (Allah's) creation so the creation became indistinct (who created what)?!

Q: The Qur'an is a miracle that no one can say or write like it. Miracles are extraordinary and are difficult. But why is the Qur'an simplified?
Hint: For *"AlThikr". AlThikr (in Arabic) = Remembering Allah, Invocation of Allah, Mentioning of Allah's Names and Praying to Allah.
A: Before them (disbelievers nowadays) the people of Noah (Nooh) rejected; So they accused of lying Our servant and they said: A mad person and he was rebuked. Then he called upon His God: I am overcome so help me! So We opened the gates of the the sky with pouring water; And We made the earth gush out springs so the water met for a matter that has been decreed beforehand; And We carried him on (Ark) of planks and nails; Running under Our eyes (care) as a reward for who was rejected. And We left it a miracle so is there a warned; So how was my punishment and warnings (before the punishment). And We simplified the Qur'an for remembering Allah (Thikr)* so is there one who remembers? The nation of A'd rejected so how was my punishment and warnings? We had sent upon them a squeaking wind in a day of continuous omen (misfortune); It was plucking out poeple like the pulled out stumps of palm trees; So how was my punishment and warnings? And We simplified the Qur'an for remembering Allah (Thikr)* so is there one who remembers? The nation of Thamoud rejected the warnings; And they said: One person (Prophet Salih) from us should we follow? We are indeed in wrong and madness. The Message has been sent down upon him from among us? No! But he is a liar, ungrateful! They will know tomorrow who is the liar, the ungrateful! We are sending the camel as an ordeal trial for them so anticipate from them and endure! And tell them that the water is a sharing out between them (people - Camel)**: Every drinking is attended (in turns). Then they called their companion so he handled (sword) and he slaughtered. So how was my punishment and warnings? We sent upon them a single scream (by Gabriel) so they became like the dry stalks of the barn maker. And We simplified the Qur'an for remembering Allah (Thikr)* so is there one who remembers? The nation of Lut rejected the warnings. We sent on them a wind with stones (hurricane) except the family of Lut; We saved them at dawn; A favour from Us, that is how We reward whoever thanks. And he (Prophet Lut) had warned them about Our violent attack so they doubted the warnings. And they had seeked to tempt him about his guests (angels in shape of men) so We obliterated (destroyed) their eyes so taste my punishment and warnings. And a settled (constant) punishment met them in the early morning; So taste my punishment and warnings. <And We simplified the Qur'an for remembering Allah (Thikr)* so is there one who remembers? And the warnings reached the people of Pharaoh (Phiroun): They rejected Our signs - all of them, so We punished them the punishment of A Mighty, Capable (as a Master). So your disbelievers (other than the mentioned) are better than those or do you have amnesty (innocence) in the Psalms (Heavenly Holy Books). Or do they say: We are all one: Victorious! The crowd will be defeated and they will turn their back; Yet The Hour (Day of Judgment) is their appointment and The Hour is more disastrous and more bitter. The criminals are in a loss and madness; The day they will be pulled in Hell upon their faces: Taste the touch of Saqar (rank in Hell); We everything created it with measurement. And Our order is not except one as a twinkling of the eye. And We had destroyed your parties so is there a warned. And everything they did is in the Book (of deeds); And every small and big is recorded. Indeed the ones who fear Allah are in Gardens of Paradise and river; on trufhful seat near a Capable King (Proprietor).
Translation of: Ayat 9 - 55, Surat AlQamar.

Q: Pagan Arabs knew Allah but they were partnering with Him through 300 idols. Why didn't Allah punish the pagan Arabs who were harming Muhammad and his Muslim companions?
A: And when they (disbelievers) said: Our God! If this is The Truth from you then shower us with a rain of stones from the Heaven or bring us a severe punishment!

Q: When did Allah punish the old nations that became extinct?
A: And We did not sent before you (Muhammad) except men We reveal to them among the people of the towns. So haven't they (current disbelievers) walked on earth and thought how the ending of those before them was; And The Other World is better for those who have feared Allah, so won't you understand? When the prophets had lost hope and they thought that they were treated as liars; Our support would have reached them, and whoever We willed will be saved and Our violent power will not be driven away from the sinning (criminal) people. There was in their stories a lesson for those who have brains; It (Quran) was not a speech being made up; Instead it is a confirming of what is before it and a detailing of everything, and a guidance and a mercy for the people who have faith.

Q: If disbelievers see a miracle happening in front of them, will they have faith then?

And no prophet had reached them but they were making fun of him; That is how We (Allah) make it (The Message) pass in the hearts of the sinners: They will not believe in it, And passed away the way of the ancient people (was the same). And if We had opened for them a gate from the heaven and they remained climbing up in it, they would say: Our eyes have been intoxicated in fact we are bewitched people (under magic).

Q: What was the regular debate between each prophet and the disbelievers from his people?
A: And when Moses (Moosa) said to his people: Remember the favour of Allah upon you when He saved you from the people of Pharaoh: They were forcing upon you the worst of the punishment and they were killing your sons and shaming your women (raping) and in that a great trial from your God. And when your God made it known that if you are grateful He will indeed give you more and if you disbelieve My (Allah's) punishment is indeed severe. And Moses said: If you disbelieve you (all) and whoever is on earth altogether then Allah is The Wealthy, The Praise-Worthy. Haven't the news reached you of those who were before you: The nation of Noah and A'd and Thamoud and those after them whom no one knows them except Allah; There prophets came to them with the signs (of Allah) so they put their hands in their mouths and said: We have indeed disbelieved in what you have been sent with; And we are in a questionable doubt from what you are calling us for. Their prophets said: Is there a doubt in Allah: The Creator of the Heavens and the earth; He is calling you to forgive you your sins and he is delaying you to a fixed time. They said: You are people like us: You want to prevent us from what our forefathers were worshipping so bring us a clear authority (miracle-type). Their prophets said: We are only people like you but Allah grants whoever He wills from his devout people; And it wasn't for us to bring you an authority except with permission from Allah and upon Allah let the faithful depend. And why shouldn't we depend on Allah and He had guided us to our Ways (to Allah) and we will certainly be patient with what you harmed us and upon Allah let the dependants depend. And those who disbelieved said to their prophets: We would cast you out from our land or you certainly return to our sect of religion so Allah revealed to them: We are going to make the transgressors perish; And We will make you live on the land after them; That is for who is afraid from My (Allah's) Status and who is afraid from the threatening.

Q: What will be the excuse of the disbelievers on the Day of Judgment?
A: And the Day The Hour (Day of Judgment) takes place the guilty will swear that they stayed only one hour; That is how they were deluded (away from Allah's Path). And those who have been given Knowledge and Faith will say: Indeed you had stayed in the Record of Allah to the Day of the Resurrection so this is the Day of the Resurrection but you were not knowing! So that Day their excuse will not be of use to those who became tyrannical and they will not be rebuked. And We had made to people in this Qur'an from every example; And if you (Muhammad) bring them a line (of the Quran) those who disbelieved would say: You are but rejectors (to our traditions); That is how Allah stamps upon the hearts of those who do not know. So (to Muhammad) be patient; The promise of Allah is really true and do not be fooled by those who are not certain about their belief (in Allah's Promise).

Q: Why do some people who were believers in Allah turn into disbelievers and reject Allah or partner with Him?
A: Whoever disbelieves in Allah after his faith except those who is forced (to disbelieve) but his heart is peaceful with the faith; But whoever makes his chest widened (happy) with the disbelief (paganism) so on them is an anger from Allah and for them is a severe punishment. That is because they preferred Life in this world to the Life in the Other World; And Allah does not guide the disbelieving people. Those are whom Allah has stamped on their hearts and their hearing and their eyesight and those are the inattentive (unaware). No doubt that they are in The End the losers.

Q: Are people tested with troubles from Allah?
A: And when a chapter (from the Qur'an) is sent down so from them who says which one of you has this one (chapter) added to his faith. As for those who have faith so it has added to their faith and they are rejoicing with the good news; And as for those in whose hearts is an illness (hypocrisy and paganism) so it has added them filth upon their filth and they died while being infidels. Haven't they seen that they are troubled (as a test from Allah) every year once or twice and still they do not repent and they do not remember Allah. And if a chapter (from the Qur'an) is sent down they look at one another: Is someone watching you? Then they went away; Allah distracted their hearts for being people who do not understand. A prophet (Muhammad) has come to you from yourselves; Hard on him what makes you suffer; Eager for you; Towards the faithful (he is) kind, merciful.

Q: If someone partners with Allah then he stops and asks for forgiveness does Allah say He is Forgiving?

Words: Ilah = god, Yantahi = Stops, Yamas = Befalls, Athab = Punishment, Aleem = Severe, Yatoub = Repents, Yastaghfir = Asks for forgiveness, Ghafour = Forgiving, Raheem = Merciful.

Q: How does Allah show that the disbelievers have no excuse to disbelieve in Him?
A: So remind (order to Muhammad) because you are not for your God's favour a forecaster neither a madman. Or do they say 'a poet! We are expecting him to meet with a misfortune brought by time.' Say: Expect and I am with you from the expectants. Or do their brains order them to this? Or are they people who transgress beyond bounds. Or do they say he (Muhammad) made it up? No! But they do not believe! So let them bring about a speech like it if they were truthful. Or were they created from nothing? Or are they the creators? Or did they create the Heavens and the Earth? No! But they are not certain about their faith (in Allah)! Or do they have the treasures of your God? Or are they the dominant? Or do they have a stairway (to Heaven) they can listen in it so let their listener bring about a clear proof! Or does He (Allah) have the girls and they have the boys? Or do you ask them for a payment so they are from a debt burdened? Or do they have the Unseen so they are writing (what will happen)! Or do they want to plot but the ones who disbelieved are the plotted against! Or do they have a god other than Allah? Glory to Allah from what they partner (with Him)!

Q: Can the natural disasters from the sky carry a deeper meaning?
A: And if they see pieces (of punishment like hurricane) falling down from the sky they will say: Accumulated clouds! So leave them until they meet their Day (of Judgment) when they will be thunderstruck (lose consciousness); The Day their plotting will not avail them anything and they will not be supported. And for those who transgressed a punishment* other than that but most of them do not know! And (command to Prophet Muhammad) be patient with the rule of your God because you (Muhammad) are under Our care; And glorify the praise of your God when you rise up (during the day); And from the night do glorify Him and at the setting of the stars (dawn).

Q: Who is the god who claims that he is equal to Allah?
A: Have you guaranteed that Who is in the Heaven will not make the earth sink down with you while it moves to and fro (like a pendulum)? Or have you guaranteed that Who is in the Heaven will not send down on you a violent wind with pebbles* so you will know how a warning (of Allah) is? And those before them rejected (Faith) so how was a condemnation (of Allah)? --- Or who is this who is an army of you supporting you other than The Merciful (Allah); But the disbelievers are in arrogant deception, Or who is this who provides you with sustenance if He (Allah) held back His sustenance? But they insisted (on disbelief) with insolence and hate. So the one who walks falling on his face (because of bumpy way) is more guided or the one who walks steadily on a Straight Path (Path of Allah)? Say: He is Who created you and provided you with the hearing and the eyes and the hearts; Little is what you thank for! Say: He is Who scattered you throughout the earth and to Him you will be gathered (on Day of Judgment).

Q: What argument does a disbeliever make while his own body carries the answer to the argument?
A: So (to Muhammad) do not let their words grieve you; We do know what they are concealing and what they are revealing. Has not the human being seen that We (Allah) created him from a drop of sperm then he is (surprisingly) an explicit opponent. And he made a comparison for Us while he forgot his (own) creation. He said: Who is going to give life to the bones when they become decayed? Say: Who has created them the first time will make them alive and He is with every creation Knowledgeable. He Who has made for you out of the green tree* fire so you are able from it to kindle fire. Is not He Who created the Heavens and the Earth capable of creating the like of such people; Yes! He is The Creator, The Knowledgeable. Indeed His order when He wills something is to say Be and it is (done). So glory to Him in Whose Hand is the control of everything and to Him you will be brought back.

The Forgiver of sins and the Acceptor of Repentance; Severe in Punishment, Infinite in Bounty; There is no god but He; To Him is the destiny (end). No one disputes in the lines of Allah except those who disbelieved, so do not be deceived by their movements back and forth (for business) across the land. The people of Noah (Nooh) rejected (faith) as lies and the communities after them (did also); And every nation reached the point of removing its messenger and they disputed with Falsehood to disprove the Truth; So I (Allah) took them away and how was my punishment!

Q: Why do people continue to worship idols (statutes)?
A: And this (Qur'an) is a blessed Message; We (Allah) had sent it down and you are rejectors of it! And We gave Abraham (Ibraheem) his maturity (of the mind) from before (being a prophet); And We were well acquainted with him. When he said to his father and his people: What are these statutes that you are addicted to them? They said: We found our forefathers worshipping them. He said: Indeed you and your forefathers had been in clear error. They said: Have you brought us the truth or are you from the players? He said: But your (true) God is the God of the Heavens and the Earth Who created them and I am upon that from the witnesses. And by God I will plot against your idols after you turn your backs going away. So he broke them into pieces except the biggest of them so that they might to it refer. They said: Who did this to our gods? Indeed he is from the offenders. They said: We heard a boy talking about them; He is called Abraham. They said: So bring him in front of the eyes of the people so that they may witness (his trial). They said: O Abraham! Did you do this to our gods? He said: Rather their biggest had done it, so ask them if they can talk. So they turned to themselves so they said: You are the offenders. Then they lowered their heads (with shame) (and said): You knew Those can not speak. He said: So you are worshipping other than Allah what does not benefit you anything neither does it harm you? I am bored of you and what you are worshipping other than Allah, so will not you use your brains? They said: Burn him and support your gods if you are going to do (it). We (Allah) said: O Fire! Be cool and safe for Abraham. And they planned against him but We made them the greater losers. And We delivered him and Lut* to the land near Syria that We blessed it for the inhabitants of the whole world. And We gave him Isaac (Is'haq) and Jacob (Issac's son) as an additional gift; And made each one of them righteous. And We made them religious leaders who guide according to Our (Allah's) command; And We revealed to them the doing of the righteous deeds and the performing of the prayer and giving of the charity (Zakat) and they were to Us worshippers.

Q: Why does Allah say that man is created hasty?
A: And when the disbelievers see you (Muhammad) they will but ridicule (make fun) you: Is this who talks of your gods?! And they! At the mention of the Merciful they are rejectors of faith. The human being is created hasty. Soon I will show you My signs so do not make haste! And they say: When is the Promise (Day of Judgment) if you were truthful? Only if the disbelievers knew when they will not be able to ward off the fire from their faces or their backs and they will not be helped. Yet it (Day of Judgment) will come upon them suddenly and it will make them speechless; So they can not push it away nor will they be given time.

Say (order from Allah to Muhammad): Do you then other than Allah order me to worship, you ignorant ones!? And it was revealed to you (Muhammad) and to those (prophets) before you: If you join partners (with Allah) your work (of good deeds) will fail and you will be from the losers.

Q: What is the argument that Allah made against the disbelievers who believe in anything other than Allah?
A: He (Allah) is Who created you from one soul and He made from it its mate so that he rests with her. So when he lied with her she became pregnant with a light pregnancy so she passed with it (unnoticed); So when she became heavy they both prayed to Allah their God: If you grant us a righteous (child) we will be from the grateful So when He granted them a righteous (child) they made parnters with Him in what He granted them; So exalted is Allah High above what they partner whith. Do they partner (with Allah) what does not create anything and they are created! And they cannot support them (humans) neither can they support themselves. And if you call them for The Guidance (from Allah) they will not follow you; It is the same for them if you all call them or you are silent. For those whom you call upon other than Allah are servants (creation) like you so call them and let them listen to you if they were truthful. Do they (idols, humans, nature force, self and other forms of partnership) have legs with which they walk or hands with which they attack or do they have eyes with which they see or do they have ears with which they hear?! Say (order to Muhammad): Call upon your partners (with Allah) then plot against me (Muhammad) and do not wait for me. Say: For my Protector is Allah Who has sent down The Book and He is The Protector the righteous. And those whom you call upon other than Him (Allah) they cannot support you neither can they support themselves; And if you call them to The Guidance (from Allah) they will not hear and you see them looking at you and they cannot see. So (order to Muhammad) seek forgiveness and order what is right and turn away from the ignorant!
Translation of: Ayat 189 - 199, Surat AlA'raf.
Note: According to Hasanain Muhammad Makhlouf, Ex-Mufti (ex-chief religious scholar) of Egypt, these lines initially refer to Adam and Eve. They did not want their children to die so they listened to the whispering of Satan. They called their two sons 'AbdulHarasth' = Servant of AlHarasth, as Satan was known (AlHarasth) among the angels. So by naming their sons with this name, they both partnered with Allah through the name only not the actual worship of Satan.

A: Haven't you seen that Allah had made what is in the Heavens and what is in the Earth yield for you (for your benefit); And He has bestowed upon you amply His favours - seen and unseen; And from people who disputes in Allah without knowledge and without Guidance (from Allah) and without an enlightening Book (Holy Book from Allah).

Q: In life when one has the copyright of a work or a patent of an invention no one else can claim it. What are Allah's blessings on humans and has anyone else claimed what Allah had made and where is the proof?
Note: Remember the Qur'an is not mythology or human-made.
A: The Command (Day of Judgment) of Allah has advanced so do not hasten it; Glory to Him Who is High above what they partner with him. He sends down the angels through The Spirit (Gabriel = Jibrail)* with His Command upon whoever He wills from His servants to warn that there is no god by I (Allah) so fear Me (Allah). He created the Heavens and the earth with rightful possession; High is He above those they partner with Him. He created man from a sperm so suddenly he became a clear opponent (to Allah); And the livestock He created them; In them warmth and benefits and from them you eat; And for you in them beauty when you leave them to rest and when you leave them to graze. And they carry your burdens to a land you were not going to reach it without killing yourselves with tiredness; For your God is really Kind, Merciful, And the horses, the mules and the donkeys >so as to mount them and a luxury and He creates what you do not know. And upon Allah is (to guide you) the Straight Path; And from them (paths) crooked and if He wills He would have guided you all. He is Who sent down from the Heaven water ; For you from it a drink and out of it shrubs (grow) on which you let your cattle graze freely. He (Allah) produces for you with it (water) the crop, the olives, the palm trees, the vines and from every fruit ; For in that is really a Sign (miracle) for the people who contemplate. And He made to yield to you the night, the day, the sun, the moon and the stars yielding with His Command; For in that really signs for the people who understand. And what He scatterd on earth for you (materials) of different colours**; For in that is really a sign for the people who remember. And He made the sea yield so that you eat from it tender meat (fish) and you extract from it jewelry you wear and you see the ships cutting their way through it; Also so as to seek from His favour (from the sea) and perhaps you may be grateful. And He set up on earth fastening mountains so as it does not shake up with you; And rivers and paths so that you may be guided (to Allah's Path); And landmarks and with the stars they guide themselves; So is the One Who creates similar to the one who does not create so will you not be advised?! And if you number the favours of Allah you cannot count them; For Allah is The Forgiving, The Merciful. And Allah knows what you hide and what you reveal; And those whom they pray to, other than Allah, do not create anything and they are created: (they are) Dead not living and they are not aware when they will be raised up; --- And those who were before them plotted so Allah destroyed their buildings from their foundations so on them fell the roof from above them and the punishment came to them from where they were not aware of. Then on the Day of Judgment He will humiliate them and He will say: Where are my partners that you were disputing strongly in them (against Allah); Those who were given the knowledge will say: Indeed humiliation today and misery is on the disbelievers; Those whose lives the angels take away while they being unjust to themselves will surrender - (they say) we were not doing evil.*** Yes indeed! For Allah is All-Knowing of what you (all) were doing. So enter the gates of Hell permanent in it and what a miserable dwelling place for the arrogant. And those who feared Allah were asked: What had your God sent down? They said: All that is good! To those who do good in This Life there is good (for them) and The Other World is better and what an excellent dwelling place for the good-doers.
Translation of: Ayat 1 - 21, 26 - 30, Surat AlNahl.
* In a summary of a saying of the Prophet Muhammad: When the prophet Muhammad went with the Message of Islam to the people of AlTa'if near Mecca they turned him away. The Prophet bleeding and in tears looked up to see the Angel Gabriel looking down at him from a cloud. Gabriel told the Prophet that Allah has sent him to fulfill Muhammad's wish. If Muhammad wants Gabriel will ask the angel of the mountains to close up the two mountains that surround Mecca and its surrounding. The prophet said if Allah is satisfied with him he does not care about what has happened to him. He added that he prays that faithful people be born from their offspring.

Q: In real human life is a slave equal to a free man?
Note: Note the strong argument!
A: And to Him (Allah) belongs whatever is in the Heavens and on earth: All to Him are submissive*; And He is Who originates the creation then He repeats it and it is easier for him; And to Him blongs the Ideal Example in the (creation of the) Heavens and the earth and He is the Al-Mighty, The All-Wise. He (Allah) has set an example for you from your own selves: Do you take for yourselves from your slaves partners in what We (Allah) had provided you with, so you (both parties) are equal in it? (And) You fear (make value for) them as you fear yoursleves?! That is how We detail the Signs for the people who understand! Yet those who are unjust have followed their own desires without knowledge; So who is going to guide whom Allah have left to stray?

A: Whoever wants The Quick Life (this Life) We will hasten for him what he wishes to whoever We (Allah) wish then We have made for him Hell to be burnt in it disgraced, chased away (from Allah's mercy). And whoever wants the Other Life and he works for it its hard work while being a believer (in Allah) so those whose work is being thanked (by Allah). Both (believers and disbelievers) We do provide those and those from the grant of your God; And the grant of your God has not been restricted. Look! How We have preferred some of them upon others and the Other Life is greater in ranks and greater in preference.

Q: When a person rejects faith in Allah is he really doing good to himself?
A: For those who disbelieved will be called (on Day of Judgment) that the hatred of Allah is greater than your hatred of yourselves: When you were being called to the Faith (of Allah) you were rejecting it as lies. They said (on Day of Judgment): Our God you had made us dead twice (in womb and in Life) and you had made us alive twice (in womb and on Day of Judgment) so we are confessing our sins so is there a way out (from punishment)*. That is because when Allah alone was invoked (called) you disbelieved and when He (Allah) was partnered with** you believed so the Rule is to Allah, The Most High, The Most Great.

* "And the prayer of the disbelievers is not but in vain." Translation of Line 50 Chapter Ghafir in the Qur'an.

Q: If Allah's justice dictates that a town will not be punished if a prophet was not sent to it, what about Allah's punishment nowadays?
Hint: Prophet Muhammad was the last and the seal of the prophets. He was sent to humanity: "And We (Allah) did not send you except to all mankind: Announcing the good news (to the believers) and a warner (to the disbelievers) but most of the people are not aware." Translation of Line 28 Chapter Saba' in the Quran.
A: So are they asking to hasten Our (Allah's) punishment?! So think of this: If We had granted them enjoyment for years then what they were promised (punishment) reach them; It will not be of use what they were given to enjoy; And We had not destroyed towns except they had their warners: As a reminder (of Allah) and We were not unjust.

Q: Some rich polytheists who worshipped idols with Allah argued with the Prophet Muhammad that Allah had favoured them in This Life so they certainly will be favoured in the Other Life. What does Allah say about this?
A: For the righteous there are the Gardens of Paradise with their God. So are We (Allah) going to make the righteous equal to the sinners?! What is wrong with you: How do you judge?.Or do you have a scripture (of disbelief) in which you study that for you through it is certainly whatever you choose! Or do you have solemn oaths with Us binding to the Day of the Resurrection that for you will be what you decide? Ask (order to Muhammad) them which one of them is a claimant of that?! Or do they have partners (in their claim) so let them bring about their partners if they were telling the truth. The Day (of Judgment) when the whole matter becomes very serious and they (disbelievers) will be asked to prostrate (bow down in worship) but they will not be able (stiffened with fear)! Their eyesight will be cast down; humiliation will tire them out. And they were asked to prostrate when they were in good shape (in life)! So leave Me (Allah) alone with whoever rejects this Word (Quran) as lies: We (Allah) will allure (bring them gradually) them from where they do not know. And I (Allah) will make them enjoy for quite a while for My plotting is robust (firm). Or do you Muhammad ask them for a payment so they are burdened with debt?

Then we separated between them and those they joined as partners (with Allah) will say: You were not worshipping us!

And how many towns did We (Allah) destroy when they were transgressors so they became completely empty from their inhabitants and (there was) a deserted well and a built palace. Haven't they (current disbelievers) then walked on earth (contemplate) so that they have hearts with which they understand or ears with which they listen because it does not make the eyes blind but it blinds the hearts which are in the chests.

Did not they reject as lies what Moses was given from before?! They said: Two types of magic ( Miracles of Moses and the Qur'an) backing each other and they said: Indeed we are rejecting each of them as lies. Say (order to Muhammad): Then bring about a book from Allah that is a better Guide than both of them (Torah and Quran) so that I (Muhammad) follow it if you were telling the truth. And if they do not respond to you then let it be known to you (Muhammad) that they are indeed following their own desires and who can be further astray (lost) than the one who follows his own desire without Guidance from Allah for Allah does not guide the transgressing people.

The day their faces will be turned over in Fire they will say: We wish we obeyed Allah and obeyed the Prophet.

Q: Why does not ALLah provide all disbelievers with a lot of wealth to enjoy life since there is nothing good for them in the Other Life?
Hint: Allah knows well human nature. Allah does not want all humans to be disbelievers. If Allah had given all disbelievers a lot of wealth without exception, the believers would have turned into disbelievers to attain the same.
A: And they said if only this Qur'an was sent down to a distinguished man from (either of) the two towns (near each other: Mecca and AlTa'if). Are they dividing the mercy of your God?! We have divided among them their livelihood in this Life and We have raised some of them above others so that some of them take others in service and the mercy of your God is better than what they accumulate (wealth). And were not it for people to be one nation (of disbelivers) We (Allah) would have made for those who disbelieve in The Merciful (Allah) for their houses roofs of silver and staircases upon which they ascend; And for their houses gates and couches to sit on; And ornaments and all of that is nothing but the (temporary) enjoyment of this Life and the Other Life with your God is (better) for the righteous.

Translation of: Ayat 17 - 22, Surat Abasa.

A: You (disbelievers) and what you worship other than Allah are only fuel for Hell - You are going to get in it! If these were (really) gods they would not have got in it and all in it will dwell forever. For them in it sighing (of Fire because of anger) and they in it can not hear! Indeed for those to whom the Good (Paradise) from Us was decreed those from it (Hell) are kept away: They do not hear its hissing and what their souls have desired in that they will dwell forever.

And We had seized them with the punishment but they did not humble themselves to their God nor were they begging (submissive to Allah).

And if only they begged when Our Suffering reached them but their hearts had hardened and Satan had made look good what they were doing (bad deeds); So when they forgot what they were reminded about We opened upon them gates of everything (good) until when they rejoiced with what they were given We seized them suddenly so they became dumbfounded; And those who transgressed were extinguished and Praise to Allah, the God of the inhabitants of the World.
Translation of: Ayat 42 - 45, Surat AlAn'am.
Note: In a summary of the Prophet Muhammad's speech: The Prophet said that when Allah's severe punishment occurs the righteous people also perish with the sinners, when the vile deeds become dominant.
Note: Remember the believers have the religious obligation to command the good and to prohibit the bad. In a summary of the Prophet Muhammad's speech: By Who has my soul in His Hand! You have to command the good and prohibit the bad or Allah will be about to send a punishment upon you and then you will call upon Him and you will not be answered.

He said: It is God Who will bring it upon you if He pleases and you are not making (Allah) give up!

Then they rejected it (Qur'an) as lies so they will come to know! And Our (Allah's) Word had been pre-uttered for our servants - the messengers: For they are certainly the supported (by Allah); And that Our soldiers are the victorious. So turn away (command to Prophet Muhammad) from them for some time; And give them time for they will come to see! So with Our punishment they are hastening?! But when it strikes their courtyard so how miserable the morning of the warned people will be! So turn away from them for some time. And (just) watch for they will come to see!

They (masters) said: But you did not have faith! And We did not have upon you any authority - No! You were just people who transgressed (against Allah). So the Word of Allah has come true that we are (altogether) certainly going to taste (the punishment). So we misguided you for we were (ouselves) certainly misguided. So that Day in the punishment they are sharing. That is how We (Allah) do with the sinners. For when it was said to them there is no god except Allah they became arrogant And they were saying: Are we going to leave our gods for the sake of a possessed poet? No! But he (Prophet Muhammad) came with the truth and he confirmed the prophets (before him); For certainly you are going to taste the severe punishment. And you will not be repaid except for what you were doing.
Translation of: Ayat 27 - 39, Surat AlSaffat.

And who had gone more astray than the one who prays to other than Allah that do not answer him until the Day of Judgment and they of their prayers are unaware.

Do not worship Satan* for Satan had been to the Most-Merciful a rebel. O my father! I am afraid that a punishment from Allah afflicts you then you will be a supporter of Satan (enemy of Allah).

When time passed they made statutes on those drawings. When more time passed they worshipped the statutes and they called them with the names of the dead righteous people (Wadd - Sawa' - Yaghousth - Ya'ouq and Nasr). When the matter became grave, Satan told them that rain can come down through worshipping them, Allah sent the Prophet Noah.

And their assembly (leaders) dashed out* saying: Walk away and stay faithful to your gods for this (worshipping One God) is aspired** (by Prophet Muhammad); We did not hear about this in the latest religion (Christian Trinity) for this is only a fabrication; The Messge (Qur'an) was sent to him (of all persons) from among us rather (Allah says) they are in doubt of My Message rather they have not yet tasted My punishment!
Translation of: Ayat 4 - 8, Surat Sadd.
