#279 podcast Al Quran Juz 17 QS 21 Al Anbiya 42-50

[Quran Chapter 21] 41. Messengers before you were also ridiculed, but those who jeered were surrounded by what they had ridiculed. 42. Say, "Who guards you against the Merciful by night and by day?" But they turn away from the mention of their Lord. 43. Or do they have gods who can defend them against Us? They cannot help themselves, nor will they be protected from Us. 44. We have given these enjoyments, and their ancestors, until time grew long upon them. Do they not see how We gradually reduce the land from its extremities? Are they then the victors? 45. Say, "I am warning you through inspiration." But the deaf cannot hear the call when they are being warned. 46. And when a breath of your Lord's punishment touches them, they say, "Woe to us, we were truly wicked." 47. We will set up the scales of justice for the Day of Resurrection, so that no soul will suffer the least injustice. And even if it be the weight of a mustard-seed, We will bring it up. Sufficient are We as Reckoners. 48. We gave Moses and Aaron the Criterion, and illumination, and a reminder for the righteous. 49. Those who fear their Lord in private, and are apprehensive of the Hour. 50. This too is a blessed message that We revealed. Are you going to deny it?
