This ˹sending of the messengers˺ is because your Lord would never destroy a society for their wrongdoing while its people are unaware ˹of the truth˺.

They will each be assigned ranks according to their deeds. And your Lord is not unaware of what they do.

Your Lord is the Self-Sufficient, Full of Mercy. If He wills, He can do away with you and replace you with whoever He wills, just as He produced you from the offspring of other people.

ﲉAnd they assignﲊto Allahﲋout of whatﲌHe producedﲍofﲎthe cropsﲏand the cattleﲐa shareﲑand they sayﲒThisﲓ(is) for Allahﲔby their claimﲕAnd thisﲖﲗ(is) for our partnersﲘBut whatﲙisﲚfor their partnersﲛ(does) notﲜreachﲝ[to]ﲞﲟAllahﲠwhile whatﲡisﲢfor Allahﲣthen itﲤreachesﲥ[to]ﲦﲧtheir partnersﲨEvilﲩ(is) whatﲪthey judgeﲫ
The pagans set aside for Allah a share of the crops and cattle He created, saying, “This ˹portion˺ is for Allah,” so they claim, “and this ˹one˺ for our associate-gods.” Yet the portion of their associate-gods is not shared with Allah while Allah’s portion is shared with their associate-gods. What unfair judgment!

Likewise, the pagans’ evil associates have made it appealing to them to kill their own children—only leading to their destruction as well as confusion in their faith. Had it been Allah’s Will, they would not have done such a thing. So leave them and their falsehood.
