Verse 9
we used to sit in places there, listening, but anyone trying to listen now will find a shooting star lying in wait for him––
Verse 10

Verse 11

Verse 17
a test for them––but anyone who turns away from his Lord’s Revelation will be sent by Him to spiralling torment.
Verse 18

Verse 22
Say, ‘No one can protect me from God: I have no refuge except in Him.
Verse 23
I only deliver [what I receive] from God- only His messages.’ Whoever disobeys God and His Messenger will have Hell’s Fire as his permanent home:
Verse 24
when they are confronted by what they have been warned about, they will realize who has the weaker protector and the smaller number.
Verse 25
Say, ‘I do not know whether what you have been warned about is near, or whether a distant time has been appointed for it by my Lord.’
Verse 26
He is the One who knows what is hidden.
Verse 27
He does not disclose it except to a messenger of His choosing. He sends watchers to go in front and behind
