أَلَمْ
تَرَ
إِلَى
الَّذِي
حَاجَّ
إِبْرَاهِيمَ
فِي
رَبِّهِ
أَنْ
آتَاهُ
اللَّهُ
الْمُلْكَ
إِذْ
قَالَ
إِبْرَاهِيمُ
رَبِّيَ
الَّذِي
يُحْيِي
وَيُمِيتُ
قَالَ
أَنَا
أُحْيِي
وَأُمِيتُ
قَالَ
إِبْرَاهِيمُ
فَإِنَّ
اللَّهَ
يَأْتِي
بِالشَّمْسِ
مِنَ
الْمَشْرِقِ
فَأْتِ
بِهَا
مِنَ
الْمَغْرِبِ
فَبُهِتَ
الَّذِي
كَفَرَ
وَاللَّهُ
لَا
يَهْدِي
الْقَوْمَ
الظَّالِمِينَ

(Muhammad), have you heard about the one who argued with Abraham about his Lord for His granting him authority? Abraham said, "It is only my Lord who gives life and causes things to die." His opponent said, "I also can give life and make things die." Abraham said, "God causes the sun to come up from the East. You make it come from the West." Thus the unbeliever was confounded. God does not guide the unjust people.
