THOSE WHO DENY, DESPITE THEIR
CERTAINTY OF THE EXISTENCE OF ALLAH
Say: 'Who provides for you out of heaven and earth? Who controls
hearing and sight? Who brings forth the living from the dead and
the dead from the living? Who directs the whole affair?' They will
say, 'Allah.' Say, 'So will you not guard against evil?' (Qur'an, 10:31)
If you asked them, 'Who created the heavens and the earth?' they
would say, 'Allah!' Say: 'Praise be to Allah!' But most of them do
not know. (Qur'an, 31:25)
If you asked them who created them, they would say, 'Allah!' So
how have they been perverted? (Qur'an, 43:87)
Do you really hope they will follow you in faith when a group of
them heard Allah's Word and then, after grasping it, knowingly
distorted it? (Qur'an, 2:75)
THOSE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE DUE
TO THEIR FEAR OF FACING PRESSURE
FROM THE UNBELIEVERS
No one believed in Musa except for a few of his people out of fear
that Pharaoh, and the elders, would persecute them. Pharaoh was
high and mighty in the land. He was one of the profligate. (Qur'an,
10:83)
They say, 'If we follow the guidance with you, we shall be forcibly
uprooted from our land.' Have We not established a safe haven
for them to which produce of every kind is brought, provision
direct from Us? But most of them do not know it. (Qur'an, 28:57)
THOSE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE
IN RESURRECTION
They say, 'When we have been absorbed into the earth, are we
then to be in a new creation?' In fact they reject the meeting with
their Lord. (Qur'an, 32:10)
