3:188 Those who boast about their works, and wish to be praised for something they have not really done, should not think that they can evade the retribution. They have incurred a painful retribution.
3:189 To GOD belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth. GOD is Omnipotent.
God is the one who gave them the wealth and intellect, yet they think that they got this all themselves.
6:46 Say, “What if GOD took away your hearing and your eyesight, and sealed your minds; which god, other than GOD, can restore these for you?” Note how we explain the revelations, and note how they still deviate!
16:78 GOD brought you out of your mothers’ bellies knowing nothing, and He gave you the hearing, the eyesight, and the brains, that you may be appreciative.
