Say, "Who provides for you from the heaven and the earth? And who controls the hearing and the sight? And who produces the living from the dead, and produces the dead from the living? And who governs the Order?" They will say, "Allah." Say, "Will you not be careful?"
Such is Allah, your Lord—the True. What is there, beyond the truth, except falsehood? How are you turned away?
Thus your Lord's Word proved true against those who disobeyed, for they do not believe.
Say, "Can any of your partners initiate creation, and then repeat it?" Say, "Allah initiates creation, and then repeats it. How are you so deluded?"
Say, "Can any of your partners guide to the truth?" Say, "Allah guides to the truth. Is He who guides to the truth more worthy of being followed, or he who does not guide, unless he himself is guided? What is the matter with you? How do you judge?"
Most of them follow nothing but assumptions; and assumptions avail nothing against the truth. Allah is fully aware of what they do.
This Quran could not have been produced by anyone other than Allah. In fact, it is a confirmation of what preceded it, and an elaboration of the Book. There is no doubt about it—it is from the Lord of the Universe.
Or do they say, "He has forged it"? Say, "Then produce a single chapter like it, and call upon whomever you can, apart from Allah, if you are truthful."
In fact, they deny what is beyond the limits of their knowledge, and whose explanation has not yet reached them. Thus those before them refused to believe. So note the consequences for the wrongdoers.
Among them are those who believe in it, and among them are those who do not believe in it. Your Lord is fully aware of the mischief-makers.
