Building

And We caused the people who had been oppressed to inherit the eastern regions of the land and the western ones, which We had blessed. And the good word [i.e., decree] of your Lord was fulfilled for the Children of Israel because of what they had patiently endured. And We destroyed [all] that Pharaoh and his people were producing and what they had been building.

Then is one who laid the foundation of his building on righteousness [with fear] from Allāh and [seeking] His approval better or one who laid the foundation of his building on the edge of a bank about to collapse, so it collapsed with him into the fire of Hell? And Allāh does not guide the wrongdoing people.

Their building which they built will not cease to be a [cause of] skepticism in their hearts until their hearts are cut [i.e., stopped]. And Allāh is Knowing and Wise.

Those before them had already plotted, but Allāh came at [i.e., uprooted] their building from the foundations, so the roof fell upon them from above them,¹ and the punishment came to them from where they did not perceive.

And similarly, We caused them to be found that they [who found them] would know that the promise of Allāh is truth and that of the Hour there is no doubt. [That was] when they¹ disputed among themselves about their affair and [then] said, "Construct over them a structure. Their Lord is most knowing about them." Said those who prevailed in the matter, "We will surely take [for ourselves] over them a masjid."²

They said, "Construct for him a structure [i.e., furnace] and throw him into the burning fire."

And [also] the devils [of jinn] - every builder and diver

And Pharaoh said, "O Hāmān, construct for me a tower that I might reach the ways¹ -

And the heaven We constructed with strength,¹ and indeed, We are [its] expander.

Indeed, Allāh loves those who fight in His cause in a row as though they are a [single] structure joined firmly.

And constructed above you seven strong [heavens]

Are you a more difficult creation or is the heaven? He [i.e., Allāh] constructed it.
