They hatched a plot and We hatched a plot while they were not
            aware. (Qur'an, 27:50)


            HE BRINGS THE TREACHEROUS PLANS
            OF DISBELIEVERS COME TO NOTHING
            That is your reward. Allah always confounds the schemes of the
            unbelievers. (Qur'an, 8:18)
            Do you not see what your Lord did with the Companions of the
            Elephant? Did He not bring all their schemes to nothing, (Qur'an,
            105:1-2)
            Those before them also plotted, and Allah came at their building
            from the foundations and the roof caved in on top of them. The
            punishment came at them from where they did not expect. (Qur'an,
            16:26)
            When he brought them the truth from Us they said, 'Slaughter the
            sons of those who believe with him but let their women live.'  The
            stratagems of the unbelievers are nothing but errors. (Qur'an,
            40:25)
            Those before them plotted but all plotting belongs to Allah. He
            knows what each self earns, and the unbelievers will soon know
            who has the Ultimate Abode. (Qur'an, 13:42)

            HE GRANTS DISBELIEVERS RESPITE
            THAT THEY MAY GROW IN THEIR INIQUITY
            (Muhammad,) Do not consider Allah to be unaware of what the
            wrongdoers perpetrate. He is merely deferring them to a Day on
            which their sight will be transfixed. (Qur'an, 14:42)
            If Allah were to punish people for their wrong actions, not a single
            creature would be left upon the earth, but He defers them till a
            predetermined time. When their specified time arrives, they cannot
            delay it for a single hour nor can they bring it forward. (Qur'an,
            16:61)
