#275 podcast Al Quran Juz 16 QS 20 Taha 129-135

[Quran Chapter 20] 129. Were it not for a word that issued from your Lord, the inevitable would have happened, but there is an appointed term. 130. So bear patiently what they say, and celebrate the praises of your Lord before the rising of the sun, and before its setting. And during the hours of the night glorify Him, and at the borders of the day, that you may be satisfied. 131. And do not extend your glance towards what We have given some classes of them to enjoy—the splendor of the life of this world—that We may test them thereby. Your Lord's provision is better, and more lasting. 132. And exhort your people to pray, and patiently adhere to it. We ask of you no sustenance, but it is We who sustain you. The good ending is that for righteousness. 133. And they say, "Why does he not bring us a miracle from his Lord?" Were they not given enough miracles in the former scriptures? 134. Had We destroyed them with a punishment before him, they would have said, "Our Lord, if only You had sent us a messenger, we would have followed Your revelations before we were humiliated and disgraced." 135. Say, "Everybody is waiting, so wait. You will know who the people of the straight path are, and who is rightly-guided.
