People whose efforts in the life of this world are misguided while
            they suppose that they are doing good.' (Qur'an, 18:104)
            But if We let him taste mercy from Us after he has suffered
            hardship, then he says, 'This is my due. I do not think that the
            Hour is going to come.And if am returned to my Lord, I will
            definitely find the best reward with Him.'But We will inform those
            who do not believe of what they did and make them suffer a
            ruthless punishment. (Qur'an, 41:50)
            Say, 'If the abode of the hereafter with Allah is for you alone, to the
            exclusion of all others, then long for death if you are telling the
            truth.' (Qur'an, 2:94)
            They say, 'No one will enter the Garden except for Jews and
            Christians.' Such is their vain hope. Say, 'Produce your evidence
            if you are telling the truth.' (Qur'an, 2:111)

            THOSE WHO THINK THE FIRE WILL TOUCH
            THEM FOR A SHORT TIME ONLY AND THEY
            WILL ULTIMATELY ENTER THE GARDEN
            They say, 'The Fire will only touch us for a number of days.' Say,
            'Have you made a contract with Allah—then Allah will not break
            His contract—or are you rather saying about Allah what you do
            not know?' (Qur'an, 2:80)
            That is because they say, 'The Fire will only touch us for a number
            of days.' Their inventions have deluded them in their religion.
            (Qur'an, 3:24)

            THOSE WHO SEEK MIRACLES
            IN ORDER TO BELIEVE
            They have sworn by Allah with their most earnest oaths that if a
            Sign comes to them they will believe in it. Say: 'The Signs are in
            Allah's control alone.' What will make you realise that even if a
            Sign did come, they would still not believe? (Qur'an, 6:109)
