ﱁAllahﱂ(is the) Protecting Guardianﱃ(of) those whoﱄbelieve[d]ﱅHe brings them outﱆfromﱇ[the] darknessﱈtowardsﱉﱊ[the] lightﱋAnd those whoﱌdisbelieve(d)ﱍtheir guardiansﱎ(are) the evil onesﱏthey bring them outﱐfromﱑthe lightﱒtowardsﱓﱔ[the] darknessﱕThoseﱖ(are the) companionsﱗﱘ(of) the Fireﱙtheyﱚin itﱛwill abide foreverﱜ(257)

Allah is the Guardian of the believers—He brings them out of darkness and into light. As for the disbelievers, their guardians are false gods who lead them out of light and into darkness. It is they who will be the residents of the Fire. They will be there forever.

Are you ˹O Prophet˺ not aware of the one who argued with Abraham about his Lord because Allah had granted him kingship? ˹Remember˺ when Abraham said, “My Lord is the One Who has power to give life and cause death.” He argued, “I too have the power to give life and cause death.” Abraham challenged ˹him˺, “Allah causes the sun to rise from the east. So make it rise from the west.” And so the disbeliever was dumbstruck. And Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people.

Or ˹are you not aware of˺ the one who passed by a city which was in ruins. He wondered, “How could Allah bring this back to life after its destruction?” So Allah caused him to die for a hundred years then brought him back to life. Allah asked, “How long have you remained ˹in this state˺?” He replied, “Perhaps a day or part of a day.” Allah said, “No! You have remained here for a hundred years! Just look at your food and drink—they have not spoiled. ˹But now˺ look at ˹the remains of˺ your donkey! And ˹so˺ We have made you into a sign for humanity. And look at the bones ˹of the donkey˺, how We bring them together then clothe them with flesh!”1 When this was made clear to him, he declared, “˹Now˺ I know that Allah is Most Capable of everything.”
