16.61 - And if Allah were to blame the people for their injustice, He would not leave on it any walking creature, but He defers them for a specified time; and when their time comes, they will not be deferred an hour, nor will they proceed. 16.62 - And they make to Allah what they dislike, and their tongues assert the lie that they will have the best. No doubt that for them will be the fire; and indeed, they will be neglected. 16.63 - By Allah, We have certainly sent (messengers) to nations before you, but the devil decorated for them their deeds; and he is their guardian today, and for them is a painful torture. 16.64 - And We have not sent down to you the book except that you may explain to them that about which they disagreed and as guidance and mercy for a people who believe. 16.65 - And Allah has sent down from the sky water and given life thereby to the earth after its death. Indeed, in that is a sign for a people who hear. 16.66 - And indeed, for you in the cattle is a lesson; We give you, drink from what is in their bellies of excretions and blood, pure milk, palatable to the drinkers. 16.67 - And of the produce of palms trees and vines, you take from it intoxication and good provision. Indeed, in that is a sign for a people who reason. 16.68 - And your Lord inspired to the bee (saying): Take for yourself among the mountains homes, and among the trees, and in that which they build. 16.69 - Then eat from all the produce of the plants and follow the ways of your Lord laid down. There emerges from its bellies a drink varying in its colours, in which there is healing for the people. Indeed, in that is a sign for a people who give thoughts. 16.70 - And Allah created you and causes you to die. And among you is one who is reversed to the oldest age so that he does not know, after (having) knowledge, a thing. Indeed, Allah is Knowing, Capable.
