Are your disbelievers any better?23 Or, is there any exemption for you in the Divine Books? Or, do they say, "We are a strong host: We shall defend ourselves?" Soon shall this host be put to rout and they will all show their backs.24 But the promised time to deal with them is the Hour of Resurrection, a most grievous and bitter Hour! These wicked people are in fact involved in misunderstanding and folly. The Day they are dragged into the Fire, on their faces, it will be said to them, "Taste now the flame of Hell." We have created everything with a destiny,25 and Our Command is but one Command, which takes effect in the twinkling of an eye.26 We have destroyed many like you.27 Then, is there any who would take admonition ? Whatever they have done is recorded in registers and everything, small or great, is written therein.28 Those who have avoided disobedience shall be among gardens and canals, in a place of true honor, in the Presence of a most Powerful King.
