The creation of the heavens and the earth is certainly greater than the re-creation of humankind, but most people do not know. Those blind ˹to the truth˺ and those who can see are not equal, nor are those who believe and do good ˹equal˺ to those who do evil. Yet you are hardly mindful. The Hour is certainly coming, there is no doubt about it. But most people do not believe.
Ghafir (Arabic: غافر, ghāfir; meaning: “The All-Forgiving”, referring to God), also known as Al-Muʼmin (Arabic: المؤمن, ’al-mu’min; meaning: The Believer), is the 40th chapter (sūrah) of the Qur’an, with 85 verses (āyāt).

لَخَلْقُ ٱلسَّمَوَتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ أَكْبَرُ مِنْ خَلْقِ ٱلنَّاسِ وَلَكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ ‎ ‏وَمَا يَسْتَوِى ٱلْأَعْمَىٰ وَٱلْبَصِيرُ وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّلِحَتِ وَلَا ٱلْمُسِىٓءُۚ قَلِيلًۭا مَّا تَتَذَكَّرُونَ ‎ ‏إِنَّ ٱلسَّاعَةَ لَءَاتِيَةٌۭ لَّا رَيْبَ فِيهَا وَلَكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ
There are seven Surahs (al-Mu’min, HaMim al-Sajdah, al-Shura, al-Zukhruf, al-Dukhan, al-Jathiyah, al-Ahqaf) that begin with the word “HaMim”. Thus these seven Surahs are also called “al-Hawamim”. These are Surahs of Da’wah, inviting people to believe in Allah, take advantage of the mercy of Allah. There is solace and comfort in these Surahs for the Believers who were persecuted because of their faith and they are given the good news that the truth will prevail.
آسمانوں اور زمین کا پیدا کرنا لوگوں کے پیدا کرنے کی نسبت بڑا (کام) ہے لیکن اکثر لوگ نہیں جانتے اور اندھا اور آنکھ والا برابر نہیں۔ اور نہ ایمان لانے والے نیکوکار اور نہ بدکار (برابر ہیں) (حقیقت یہ ہے کہ) تم بہت کم غور کرتے ہو قیامت آنے والی ہے اس میں کچھ شک نہیں۔ لیکن اکثر لوگ ایمان نہیں رکھتے
