Insolence

[But] Allāh mocks them and prolongs them in their transgression [while] they wander blindly.

And the Jews say, "The hand of Allāh is chained."¹ Chained are their hands, and cursed are they for what they say. Rather, both His hands are extended; He spends however He wills. And that which has been revealed to you from your Lord will surely increase many of them in transgression and disbelief. And We have cast among them animosity and hatred until the Day of Resurrection. Every time they kindled the fire of war [against you], Allāh extinguished it. And they strive throughout the land [causing] corruption, and Allāh does not like corrupters.

Say, "O People of the Scripture, you are [standing] on nothing until you uphold [the law of] the Torah, the Gospel, and what has been revealed to you from your Lord [i.e., the Qur’ān]." And that which has been revealed to you from your Lord will surely increase many of them in transgression and disbelief. So do not grieve over the disbelieving people.

And We will turn away their hearts and their eyes just as they refused to believe in it [i.e., the revelation] the first time. And We will leave them in their transgression, wandering blindly.

And to those who are Jews We prohibited every animal of uncloven hoof; and of the cattle and the sheep We prohibited to them their fat, except what adheres to their backs or the entrails or what is joined with bone. [By] that We repaid them for their transgression. And indeed, We are truthful.

Whoever Allāh sends astray - there is no guide for him. And He leaves them in their transgression, wandering blindly.

And if Allāh was to hasten for the people the evil [they invoke]¹ as He hastens for them the good, their term would have been ended for them.² But We leave the ones who do not expect the meeting with Us, in their transgression, wandering blindly.

And [remember, O Muḥammad], when We told you, "Indeed, your Lord has encompassed the people."¹ And We did not make the sight which We showed you² except as a trial for the people, as was the accursed tree [mentioned] in the Qur’ān. And We threaten [i.e., warn] them, but it increases them not except in great transgression.

And as for the boy, his parents were believers, and we feared that he would overburden them by transgression and disbelief.

Then We will surely extract from every sect those of them who were worst against the Most Merciful in insolence.

And even if We gave them mercy and removed what was upon them of affliction, they would persist in their transgression, wandering blindly.

And those who do not expect the meeting with Us say, "Why were not angels sent down to us, or [why] do we [not] see our Lord?" They have certainly become arrogant within themselves¹ and [become] insolent with great insolence.

Or who is it that could provide for you if He withheld His provision? But they have persisted in insolence and aversion.
