131. And to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and on the earth [395]. And We have instructed those who were given the Book before you and yourselves to fear Allah [396].

170. O mankind! The Messenger has come to you with the Truth [479] from your Lord [480]. Then believe in him for your own good. And if you commit infidelity, then surely to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and on the earth. And Allah is Ever Knowing, All Wise.

8. And when any trouble [28] befalls a person, he calls upon his Lord, leaning towards Him. Then when He grants him any favour from Himself, such a person forgets what he had prayed for before [29].

وَذَرِ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّخَذُواْ دِينَهُمۡ لَعِبٗا وَلَهۡوٗا وَغَرَّتۡهُمُ ٱلۡحَيَوٰةُ ٱلدُّنۡيَاۚ وَذَكِّرۡ بِهِۦٓ أَن تُبۡسَلَ نَفۡسُۢ بِمَا كَسَبَتۡ لَيۡسَ لَهَا مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ وَلِيّٞ وَلَا شَفِيعٞ وَإِن تَعۡدِلۡ كُلَّ عَدۡلٖ لَّا يُؤۡخَذۡ مِنۡهَآۗ أُوْلَـٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ أُبۡسِلُواْ بِمَا كَسَبُواْۖ لَهُمۡ شَرَابٞ مِّنۡ حَمِيمٖ وَعَذَابٌ أَلِيمُۢ بِمَا كَانُواْ يَكۡفُرُونَ

70. And leave alone those who have taken their religion as a mockery and a plaything [138], and the life of this world has deceived them. And remind them [139] with the Qur'an, so that a soul may not be seized for what it has earned. It will have no protector or intercessor besides Allah [140], and if it offers every compensation (for its wrong deeds), it will not be accepted by it. These are the ones who will be seized for what they have earned [141]. They will have a drink of boiling water and a painful punishment, because of their disbelief [142].
