Quran 6:33~37

We certainly know that what they say grieves you ˹O Prophet˺. It is not your honesty they question—it is Allah’s signs that the wrongdoers deny. Indeed, messengers before you were rejected but patiently endured rejection and persecution until Our help came to them. And Allah’s promise ˹to help˺ is never broken. And you have already received some of the narratives of these messengers. Contd….
The name of the chapter [006] is al-An’am [Cattle]
If you find their denial unbearable, then build— if you can— a tunnel through the earth or stairs to the sky to bring them a ˹more compelling˺ sign. Had Allah so willed, He could have guided them all. So do not be one of those ignorant ˹of this fact˺. Only the attentive will respond ˹to your call˺. As for the dead, Allah will raise them up, then to Him they will ˹all˺ be returned. Contd….
it consists of 165 Verses.
They ask, “Why has no ˹other˺ sign been sent down to him from his Lord?” Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Allah certainly has the power to send down a sign”— though most of them do not know. Quran 6:33 ~37 Surah al-An`am (Livestock)

Quran 4 : 36(Partial) ~ 39

Surely Allah does not like whoever is arrogant, boastful— those who are stingy, promote stinginess among people, and withhold Allah’s bounties. We have prepared for the disbelievers a humiliating punishment. Likewise for those who spend their wealth to show off and do not believe in Allah or the Last Day. And whoever takes Satan as an associate— what an evil associate they have! What harm could have come to them if they had believed in Allah and the Last Day and donated from what Allah has provided for them? And Allah has ˹perfect˺ knowledge of them. Quran 4: 36 (partial) to 39 Surah an-Nisa` (Women)
An-Nisa’ (Arabic: ٱلنساء, An-Nisāʾ; meaning: The Women) is the fourth chapter (sūrah) of the Quran, with 176 verses (āyāt).
The title derives from the numerous references to women throughout the chapter, including verse 34 and verses 127-130.

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا یُحِبُّ مَن كَانَ مُخۡتَالࣰا فَخُورًا ٱلَّذِینَ یَبۡخَلُونَ وَیَأۡمُرُونَ ٱلنَّاسَ بِٱلۡبُخۡلِ وَیَكۡتُمُونَ مَاۤ ءَاتَىٰهُمُ ٱللَّهُ مِن فَضۡلِهِۦۗ وَأَعۡتَدۡنَا لِلۡكَـٰفِرِینَ عَذَابࣰا مُّهِینࣰا وَٱلَّذِینَ یُنفِقُونَ أَمۡوَ ٰلَهُمۡ رِئَاۤءَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَلَا یُؤۡمِنُونَ بِٱللَّهِ وَلَا بِٱلۡیَوۡمِ ٱلۡءَاخِرِۗ وَمَن یَكُنِ ٱلشَّیۡطَـٰنُ لَهُۥ قَرِینࣰا فَسَاۤءَ قَرِینࣰا وَمَاذَا عَلَیۡهِمۡ لَوۡ ءَامَنُوا۟ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلۡیَوۡمِ ٱلۡءَاخِرِ وَأَنفَقُوا۟ مِمَّا رَزَقَهُمُ ٱللَّهُۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ بِهِمۡ عَلِیمًا
According to many scholars, the Surah was revealed after the Battle of Uhud, which left 70 of the Muslims killed.
This situation brought about the need to address issues such as inheritance left by those killed etc.
Hence in Surah an-Nisa, Allah Almighty address issues such as dealing with orphans [including children of those killed at Uhud] and inheritance.
خدا تکبر کرنے والے بڑائی مارنے والے کو دوست نہیں رکھتا جو خود بھی بخل کریں اور لوگوں کو بھی بخل سکھائیں اور جو (مال) خدا نے ان کو اپنے فضل سے عطا فرمایا ہے اسے چھپا چھپا کے رکھیں اور ہم نے ناشکروں کے لئے ذلت کا عذاب تیار کر رکھا ہے اور خرچ بھی کریں تو (خدا کے لئے نہیں بلکہ) لوگوں کے دکھانے کو اور ایمان نہ خدا پر لائیں اور نہ روز آخرت پر (ایسے لوگوں کو ساتھی شیطان ہے) اور جس کا ساتھی شیطان ہوا تو (کچھ شک نہیں کہ) وہ برا ساتھی ہے اور اگر یہ لوگ خدا پر اور روز قیامت پر ایمان لاتے اور جو کچھ خدا نے ان کو دیا تھا اس میں سے خرچ کرتے تو ان کا کیا نقصان ہوتا اور خدا ان کو خوب جانتا ہے

Quran 35:36~37

As for the disbelievers, they will have the Fire of Hell, where they will not be ˹allowed to be˺ finished by death, nor will its torment be lightened for them. This is how We reward every ˹stubborn˺ disbeliever. There they will be ˹fervently˺ screaming, “Our Lord! Take us out ˹and send us back˺. We will do good, unlike what we used to do.” ˹They will be told,˺ “Did We not give you lives long enough so that whoever wanted to be mindful could have done so? And the warner came to you. So taste ˹the punishment˺, for the wrongdoers have no helper.” Quran 35:36~37 Surah Fatir (The Creator)
This Surah takes it name after the first Ayat,
الْحَمْدُ لِلَّـهِ فَاطِرِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ جَاعِلِ الْمَلَائِكَةِ رُسُلًا أُولِي أَجْنِحَةٍ مَّثْنَىٰ وَثُلَاثَ وَرُبَاعَ

وَٱلَّذِینَ كَفَرُوا۟ لَهُمۡ نَارُ جَهَنَّمَ لَا یُقۡضَىٰ عَلَیۡهِمۡ فَیَمُوتُوا۟ وَلَا یُخَفَّفُ عَنۡهُم مِّنۡ عَذَابِهَاۚ كَذَ ٰلِكَ نَجۡزِی كُلَّ كَفُورࣲ وَهُمۡ یَصۡطَرِخُونَ فِیهَا رَبَّنَاۤ أَخۡرِجۡنَا نَعۡمَلۡ صَـٰلِحًا غَیۡرَ ٱلَّذِی كُنَّا نَعۡمَلُۚ أَوَ لَمۡ نُعَمِّرۡكُم مَّا یَتَذَكَّرُ فِیهِ مَن تَذَكَّرَ وَجَاۤءَكُمُ ٱلنَّذِیرُۖ فَذُوقُوا۟ فَمَا لِلظَّـٰلِمِینَ مِن نَّصِیرٍ
In this Surah Allah warns the non-believers on their negative attitude towards Islam and Prophet Muhammad -peace be upon him. The basic message is also explained to them.
اور جن لوگوں نے کفر کیا ان کے لئے دوزخ کی آگ ہے۔ نہ انہیں موت آئے گی کہ مرجائیں اور نہ ان کا عذاب ہی ان سے ہلکا کیا جائے گا۔ ہم ہر ایک ناشکرے کو ایسا ہی بدلہ دیا کرتے ہیں وہ اس میں چلائیں گے کہ اے پروردگار ہم کو نکال لے (اب) ہم نیک عمل کیا کریں گے۔ نہ وہ جو (پہلے) کرتے تھے۔ کیا ہم نے تم کو اتنی عمر نہیں دی تھی کہ اس میں جو سوچنا چاہتا سوچ لیتا اور تمہارے پاس ڈرانے والا بھی آیا۔ تو اب مزے چکھو۔ ظالموں کا کوئی مددگار نہیں

Quran 80:33~42

[Surah `Abasa]

Then, when the Deafening Blast comes to pass— (i.e., by blowing of the Trumpet) on that Day every person will flee from their own siblings, and ˹even˺ their mother and father, and ˹even˺ their spouse & children. For then everyone will have enough concern of their own. On that Day ˹some˺ faces will be bright, laughing and rejoicing, while ˹other˺ faces will be dusty, cast in gloom— those are the disbelievers, the ˹wicked˺ sinners. Quran 80:33~42 Surah `Abasa (He Frowned)
The Surah takes its name from the first Ayat, عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ “He frowned and turned away.” [80:1]
There are 42 Ayat in this Surah.

فَإِذَا جَآءَتِ ٱلصَّآخَّةُ يَوْمَ يَفِرُّ ٱلْمَرْءُ مِنْ أَخِيهِ وَأُمِّهِۦ وَأَبِيهِ وَصَـٰحِبَتِهِۦ وَبَنِيهِ لِكُلِّ ٱمْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ شَأْنٌ يُغْنِيهِ وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ مُّسْفِرَةٌ ضَاحِكَةٌ مُّسْتَبْشِرَةٌ وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَيْهَا غَبَرَةٌ تَرْهَقُهَا قَتَرَةٌ أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْكَفَرَةُ ٱلْفَجَرَةُ
The Surah begins with the incident of a blind man (Abdullah ibn Umm Maktum) who came to the Prophet to seek knowledge, while the chiefs of Makkah were denying the message. It talks about the greatness of Allah’s message. Those who will accept this message they will benefit from it. But those who deny this message they are bringing harm to their own selves.
آخرکار جب وہ کان بہرے کر دینے والی آواز بلند ہوگی اُس روز آدمی اپنے بھائی اور اپنی ماں اور اپنے باپ اور اپنی بیوی اور اپنی اولاد سے بھاگے گا ان میں سے ہر شخص پر اس دن ایسا وقت آ پڑے گا کہ اسے اپنے سوا کسی کا ہوش نہ ہوگا کچھ چہرے اُس روز دمک رہے ہوں گے ہشاش بشاش اور خوش و خرم ہوں گے اور کچھ چہروں پر اس روز خاک اڑ رہی ہوگی اور کلونس چھائی ہوئی ہوگی یہی کافر و فاجر لوگ ہوں گے
