And the Quran that is full of wisdom.

Most assuredly, you (Rashad) are one of the messengers.
5
This revelation is from the Almighty, Most Merciful.
6
To warn people whose parents were never warned, and therefore, they are unaware.
7
It has been predetermined that most of them do not believe.
8
For we place around their necks shackles, up to their chins. Consequently, they become locked in their disbelief.
9
And we place a barrier in front of them, and a barrier behind them, and thus, we veil them; they cannot see.
10
It is the same whether you warn them or not, they cannot believe.
11
You will be heeded only by those who uphold this message, and reverence the Most Gracious?even when alone in their privacy. Give them good news of forgiveness and a generous recompense.
12
We will certainly revive the dead, and we have recorded everything they have done in this life, as well as the consequences that continue after their death. Everything we have counted in a profound record.

17
Our sole mission is to deliver the message.
18
They said, We consider you bad omens. Unless you refrain, we will surely stone you, or afflict you with painful retribution.

22
Why should I not worship the One who initiated me, and to Him is your ultimate return?
23
Shall I set up beside Him gods? If the Most Gracious willed any harm for me, their intercession cannot help me one bit, nor can they rescue me.
24
In that case, I would be totally astray.
25
I have believed in your Lord; please listen to me.
26

29
All it took was one blow, whereupon they were stilled.
30
