10.When they (infidels) came upon you from above you, and from below (23) you, and when your eyes dazzled in amazement, and hearts rose up to your throats (24), and you began to think diverse thoughts (25) about Allah (of hope and despair).

19.They are reluctant in helping you. But when the time of fear comes to them, you will see them looking at you. Their eyes are rolling [41] as if death [42] has approached them. Then when the time of fear has passed (43) away, they began to taunt you with a sharp tongue, being greedy of the booty (44).

122. And is he who was dead, then We gave him life and made for him a light [270], by which he walks among mankind, like one who is in darkness [271], from which he cannot come out? Thus, in the eyes of the disbelievers, their deeds have been made fair [272].

83. And you will surely find the Jews and polytheists [232] to be the most intense in enmity toward those who believe, and you will surely find the nearest of them in affection to the believers those who say, "We are Christians" [233].

37. Surely, their postponement of the sacred months is nothing but an increase in disbelief [96], by which those who disbelieve are led astray [97]. They make it lawful one year [98], and forbid it in another [99], to adjust the count of the months that Allah has made sacred [100], thus permitting what Allah has forbidden. Their evil deeds have been made attractive [101] to them. And Allah does not guide the disbelieving people [102].

Ayah 92

92. Nor is there any blame on those who came to you so that you might provide [249] conveyance for them. You said to them: "I do not find any means to carry [250] you." So they turned back with their eyes overflowing with tears out of sorrow because they could not find anything to spend [251].

Surah Name : At-Tawbah   Surah Number : 9   Ayat Number: 92

Ayah 31

وَلَآ أَقُولُ لَكُمۡ عِندِي خَزَآئِنُ ٱللَّهِ وَلَآ أَعۡلَمُ ٱلۡغَيۡبَ وَلَآ أَقُولُ إِنِّي مَلَكٞ وَلَآ أَقُولُ لِلَّذِينَ تَزۡدَرِيٓ أَعۡيُنُكُمۡ لَن يُؤۡتِيَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ خَيۡرًاۖ ٱللَّهُ أَعۡلَمُ بِمَا فِيٓ أَنفُسِهِمۡ إِنِّيٓ إِذٗا لَّمِنَ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ

31. And I do not say to you, "I have the treasures of Allah [68], nor do I know the unseen [69], nor do I say, 'I am an angel [70].' Nor do I say of those whom your eyes disdain, 'Allah will not grant them any good [71].' Allah knows best what is within their souls. If I were to do so, then indeed, I would be among the wrongdoers [72].

Surah Name : Hud   Surah Number : 11   Ayat Number: 31

Ayah 46

أَفَلَمۡ يَسِيرُواْ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ فَتَكُونَ لَهُمۡ قُلُوبٞ يَعۡقِلُونَ بِهَآ أَوۡ ءَاذَانٞ يَسۡمَعُونَ بِهَاۖ فَإِنَّهَا لَا تَعۡمَى ٱلۡأَبۡصَٰرُ وَلَٰكِن تَعۡمَى ٱلۡقُلُوبُ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلصُّدُورِ

46. Have they not traveled in the land [102] that they should have hearts with which to understand or ears with which to hear? [103] Certainly it is not the eyes that become blind but the hearts (104) which are in the breasts.

Surah Name : Al-Hajj   Surah Number : 22   Ayat Number: 46

Ayah 74

وَٱلَّذِينَ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا هَبۡ لَنَا مِنۡ أَزۡوَٰجِنَا وَذُرِّيَّـٰتِنَا قُرَّةَ أَعۡيُنٖ وَٱجۡعَلۡنَا لِلۡمُتَّقِينَ إِمَامًا
