إِنَّ هَٰؤُلَاءِ لَيَقُولُونَ

Indeed, these [disbelievers] are saying,

44:35

إِنْ هِيَ إِلَّا مَوْتَتُنَا الْأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُنْشَرِينَ

"There is not but our first death, and we will not be resurrected.

فَأْتُوا بِآبَائِنَا إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَادِقِينَ

Then bring [back] our forefathers, if you should be truthful."

أَهُمْ خَيْرٌ أَمْ قَوْمُ تُبَّعٍ وَالَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ ۚ أَهْلَكْنَاهُمْ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا مُجْرِمِينَ

Are they better or the people of Tubbaʿ and those before them? We destroyed them, [for] indeed, they were criminals.

وَمَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا لَاعِبِينَ

And We did not create the heavens and earth and that between them in play.
