Abdul Hye
Or have they taken other deities for worship besides Him? Say: “Bring your proof. This (the Qur’an) is a reminder for those who are with me and reminder for those before me.” But most of them don’t know the truth, so they are reluctant.

Abdul Hye
Nay, We gave luxuries (of this life to) these people and their forefathers until the life grew long for them. Don’t they then see how We (gradually) reduce the land (their control) from its all sides? Is it then they who will overcome (be victorious)
