23:62 We never burden any soul beyond its means, and we keep a record that utters the truth. No one will suffer injustice.
23:63 Because their minds are oblivious to this, they commit works that do not conform with this; their works are evil.
23:64 Then, when we requite their leaders with retribution, they complain.
23:65 Do not complain now; you have given up all help from us.
23:66 My proofs have been presented to you, but you turned back on your heels.
23:67 You were too arrogant to accept them, and you defiantly disregarded them.
23:68 Why do they not reflect upon this scripture? Do they not realize that they have received something never attained by their ancestors?
23:69 Have they failed to recognize their messenger? Is this why they are disregarding him?
23:70 Have they decided that he is crazy? Indeed, he has brought the truth to them, but most of them hate the truth.
23:71 Indeed, if the truth conformed to their wishes, there would be chaos in the heavens and the earth; everything in them would be corrupted. We have given them their proof, but they are disregarding their proof.
23:72 Are you asking them for a wage? Your Lord’s wage is far better. He is the best Provider.
23:73 Most assuredly, you are inviting them to a straight path.
23:74 Those who disbelieve in the Hereafter will surely deviate from the right path.
23:75 Even when we showered them with mercy, and relieved their problems, they plunged deeper into transgression, and continued to blunder.
23:76 Even when we afflicted them with retribution, they never turned to their Lord imploring.
23:77 Subsequently, when we requited them with the severe retribution they had incurred, they were shocked.
23:78 He is the One who granted you the hearing, the eyesight, and the brains. Rarely are you appreciative.
23:79 He is the One who established you on earth, and before Him you will be summoned.
23:80 He is the One who controls life and death, and He is the One who alternates the night and day. Do you not understand?
23:82 They said, “After we die and become dust and bones, we get resurrected?
23:83 “Such promises were given to us and to our parents in the past. These are no more than tales from the past.”
Truth = Order
Falsehood = Chaos
In some fundamental way goodness, order and meaning are related while evil, disorder, and meaninglessness are also related. Like a mathematical proof if one premise of the proof is flawed then all the proof and all the axioms based on that one flawed premise are also flawed.
76:3 We showed him the two paths, then, he is either appreciative, or unappreciative.
9:125 As for those who harbored doubts in their hearts, it actually added unholiness to their unholiness, and they died as disbelievers. 9:126 Do they not see that they suffer from exacting trials every year once or twice? Yet, they consistently fail to repent, and fail to take heed?
27:72 Say, “You are already suffering some of the retribution you challenge.”
34:45 Those before them disbelieved, and even though they did not see one-tenth* of (the miracle) we have given to this generation, when they disbelieved My messengers, how severe was My retribution!
Our Response to the Messengers
28:65 On that day, He will ask everyone, “How did you respond to the messengers?” 28:66 They will be so stunned by the facts on that day, they will be speechless.
26:203 They will then say, “Can we have a respite?” 26:204 Did they not challenge our retribution? 26:205 As you see, we allowed them to enjoy for years. 26:206 Then the retribution came to them, just as promised. 26:207 Their vast resources did not help them in the least. 26:208 We never annihilate any community without sending warners. 26:209 Therefore, this is a reminder, for we are never unjust.
21:107 We have sent you out of mercy from us towards the whole world.
43:76 It is not us who wronged them; it is they who wronged their own souls.
47:9 That is because they hated what GOD revealed and consequently, He nullifies their works.
47:26 This is because they said to those who hated what GOD has sent down, “We will obey you in certain matters.” GOD fully knows their secret conspiracies.
22:62 It is a fact that GOD is the Truth, while the setting up of any idols beside Him constitutes a falsehood, and that GOD is the Most High, the Supreme.
