Say, “Of your ‘partners’, is there any that can lead you to the truth?” Say, “God leads to the truth. So, who is more worthy of being followed? The One Who shows you the way or one who finds no way unless he is guided? What is amiss with you? How do you judge?”

This Quran could not possibly have been devised by anyone except God. Nay, it is a confirmation of the (truth in) the earlier revelations, and a clear exposition of the Eternal law. Without any trace of doubt, this Book is from the Lord of the Worlds. (While it confirms the surviving truth in the previous revelations, it is a Watcher over them and ignores and, where necessary, corrects the human touch in them. [2:101, 5:48]

Or, do they say, “He has invented it”? Tell them, “Bring one Surah like this and call for help everyone you can besides God, if you are truthful.” [2:23, 11:13. One chapter like this in beauty, eloquence and wisdom. And “besides God” would mean, without copying phrases and sentences from the Quran]

Nay, they deny it without grasping the profound knowledge therein. And they have yet to see the benevolent transformation it can bring about in the making of humanity. This is how those before them denied. Then see what was the end of those who thus wronged themselves![Taaweel = Practical interpretation. Taaweel is erroneously promoted by some as remote meanings of the Quran known only to a few select! Practical interpretation: They are yet to see the practical interpretation of the Quran, as to how it can bring about a benevolent transformation in the society]

And of them is he who believes in this (Quran), and of them is he who does not believe in it. Your Lord is best Aware of those who are bent upon denial and want corruption and disorder to go on.

If they keep denying you (O Prophet), say, “I have my work, and you have your work. You are innocent of what I do and I am innocent of what you do.” [109:1-6]

Among them are those who apparently listen to you. (But their thoughts are wandering.) Can you make hear those deaf who do not use reason? [47:16]

And among them you will find those who look at you without seeing. (Their mind is roaming elsewhere.) Can you show the way to those who are blind of the heart? [7:198]

God is never unjust to human beings; but people wrong themselves. [Failing to use the God-given faculties is the first wrong one can commit. It brings the humans down to subhuman levels. 7:179]

And on the Day when He will gather them, they will think they lived (in this world) an hour of the day, recognizing one another. (Others will think it was a day or a few days 20:103-104.) Lost will be those who denied meeting with God, and thus, failed to be rightly guided. [10:7]
