Reprimand and Guidance

When Our lucid revelations are read out to them, the infidels say to those who believe: "Which of the two groups is better in standing, and whose company is more excellent?"

How many generations that had far more wealth and ostentation have We laid low before them!

Say: "Ar-Rahman extends the life of those who are astray until they come to realise what had been promised them was either (physical) affliction or (the terror) of Resurrection. Then will they know who is worse in position, and who is weak in supporters.

God gives greater guidance to those who are guided; and good deeds that endure are better with your Lord for reward, and better for consequence.
