Surah Ghafir
Ayah-85, Makkah
40:78
وَلَقَدۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَا رُسُلاً مِّن قَبۡلِكَ مِنۡهُم مَّن قَصَصۡنَا عَلَيۡكَ وَمِنۡهُم مَّن لَّمۡ نَقۡصُصۡ عَلَيۡكَۗ وَمَا كَانَ لِرَسُولٍ أَن يَأۡتِىَ بِـَٔـايَةٍ إِلَّا بِإِذۡنِ ٱللَّهِۚ فَإِذَا جَآءَ أَمۡرُ ٱللَّهِ قُضِىَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَخَسِرَ هُنَالِكَ ٱلۡمُبۡطِلُونَ٧٨

And We have already sent messengers before you. Among them are those [whose stories] We have related to you, and among them are those [whose stories] We have not related to you. And it was not for any messenger to bring a sign [or verse] except by permission of Allah . So when the command of Allah comes, it will be concluded in truth, and the falsifiers will thereupon lose [all].
40:79
ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلۡأَنۡعَٰمَ لِتَرۡكَبُواۡ مِنۡهَا وَمِنۡهَا تَأۡكُلُونَ٧٩

وَلَكُمۡ فِيهَا مَنَٰفِعُ وَلِتَبۡلُغُواۡ عَلَيۡهَا حَاجَةً فِى صُدُورِكُمۡ وَعَلَيۡهَا وَعَلَى ٱلۡفُلۡكِ تُحۡمَلُونَ٨٠

And for you therein are [other] benefits and that you may realize upon them a need which is in your breasts; and upon them and upon ships you are carried.
40:81
وَيُرِيكُمۡ ءَايَٰتِهِۦ فَأَىَّ ءَايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِ تُنكِرُونَ٨١

And He shows you His signs. So which of the signs of Allah do you deny?
40:82
أَفَلَمۡ يَسِيرُواۡ فِى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ فَيَنظُرُواۡ كَيۡفَ كَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡۚ كَانُوٓاۡ أَكۡثَرَ مِنۡهُمۡ وَأَشَدَّ قُوَّةً وَءَاثَارًا فِى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ فَمَآ أَغۡنَىٰ عَنۡهُم مَّا كَانُواۡ يَكۡسِبُونَ٨٢

Have they not traveled through the land and observed how was the end of those before them? They were more numerous than themselves and greater in strength and in impression on the land, but they were not availed by what they used to earn.

And when their messengers came to them with clear proofs, they [merely] rejoiced in what they had of knowledge, but they were enveloped by what they used to ridicule.

And when they saw Our punishment, they said," We believe in Allah alone and disbelieve in that which we used to associate with Him."
40:85
فَلَمۡ يَكُ يَنفَعُهُمۡ إِيمَٰنُهُمۡ لَمَّا رَأَوۡاۡ بَأۡسَنَاۖ سُنَّتَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلَّتِى قَدۡ خَلَتۡ فِى عِبَادِهِۖۦ وَخَسِرَ هُنَالِكَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرُونَ٨٥

But never did their faith benefit them once they saw Our punishment. [It is] the established way of Allah which has preceded among His servants. And the disbelievers thereupon lost [all].
