Do those who devise evil plots feel secure that Allah will not cause the earth to swallow them? Or that the torment will not come upon them in ways they cannot comprehend? Or that He will not seize them while they go about ˹their day˺, for then they will have no escape? Or that He will not destroy them gradually? But your Lord is truly Ever Gracious, Most Merciful.

أَفَأَمِنَ ٱلَّذِینَ مَكَرُوا۟ ٱلسَّیِّءَاتِ أَن یَخۡسِفَ ٱللَّهُ بِهِمُ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ أَوۡ یَأۡتِیَهُمُ ٱلۡعَذَابُ مِنۡ حَیۡثُ لَا یَشۡعُرُونَ أَوۡ یَأۡخُذَهُمۡ فِی تَقَلُّبِهِمۡ فَمَا هُم بِمُعۡجِزِینَ أَوۡ یَأۡخُذَهُمۡ عَلَىٰ تَخَوُّفࣲ فَإِنَّ رَبَّكُمۡ لَرَءُوفࣱ رَّحِیمٌ
The Surah speaks about Allah’s creative power.
Everything in the universe points to Allah.
There is coherence and balance in Allah’s creation.
یا جو لوگ بری بری چالیں چلتے ہیں اس بات سے بےخوف ہیں کہ خدا ان کو زمین میں دھنسا دے یا (ایسی طرف سے) ان پر عذاب آجائے جہاں سے ان کو خبر ہی نہ ہو یا ان کو چلتے پھرتے پکڑ لے وہ (خدا کو) عاجز نہیں کرسکتے یا جب ان کو عذاب کا ڈر پیدا ہوگیا ہو تو ان کو پکڑلے۔ بےشک تمہارا پروردگار بہت شفقت کرنے والا اور مہربان ہے
It is named after honey bees mentioned in verse 68, and contains a comparison of the industry and adaptability of honey bees with the industry of man.
And your Lord taught the honey bee to build its cells in hills, on trees, and in (men’s) habitations; Then to eat of all the produce (of the earth), and find with skill the spacious paths of its Lord: there issues from within their bodies a drink of varying colours, wherein is healing for men: verily in this is a Sign for those who give thought.

Quran 32:18~20

Is the one who is a believer equal ˹before Allah˺ to the one who is rebellious? They are not equal! As for those who believe and do good, they will have the Gardens of ˹Eternal˺ Residence—as an accommodation for what they used to do. But as for those who are rebellious, the Fire will be their home. Whenever they try to escape from it, they will be forced back into it, and will be told, “Taste the Fire’s torment, which you used to deny.” Quran 32:18~20 Surah as-Sajdah (The Prostration)

أَفَمَن كَانَ مُؤۡمِنࣰا كَمَن كَانَ فَاسِقࣰاۚ لَّا یَسۡتَوُۥنَ أَمَّا ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ فَلَهُمۡ جَنَّـٰتُ ٱلۡمَأۡوَىٰ نُزُلَۢا بِمَا كَانُوا۟ یَعۡمَلُونَ وَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِینَ فَسَقُوا۟ فَمَأۡوَىٰهُمُ ٱلنَّارُۖ كُلَّمَاۤ أَرَادُوۤا۟ أَن یَخۡرُجُوا۟ مِنۡهَاۤ أُعِیدُوا۟ فِیهَا وَقِیلَ لَهُمۡ ذُوقُوا۟ عَذَابَ ٱلنَّارِ ٱلَّذِی كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ
The Surah discusses some of the doubts and arguments of the non-believers against the principles of Tawhid, Risalah and Akhirah.
It invites human beings to think and reflect on their own selves and on the nature surrounding them.
Every thing points that there is a Wise and Powerful Creator for this universe.
He has not created all this phenomenon in vain. The creation has a purpose.
بھلا جو مومن ہو وہ اس شخص کی طرح ہوسکتا ہے جو نافرمان ہو؟ دونوں برابر نہیں ہو سکتے جو لوگ ایمان لائے اور نیک عمل کرتے رہے اُن کے (رہنے کے) لئے باغ ہیں یہ مہمانی اُن کاموں کی جزا ہے جو وہ کرتے تھے اور جنہوں نے نافرمانی کی اُن کے رہنے کے لئے دوزخ ہے جب چاہیں گے کہ اس میں سے نکل جائیں تو اس میں لوٹا دیئے جائیں گے۔ اور اُن سے کہا جائے گا کہ جس دوزخ کے عذاب کو تم جھوٹ سمجھتے تھے اس کے مزے چکھو

Quran 38:1~3

Ṣãd. By the Quran, full of reminders ! ˹This is the truth,˺ yet the disbelievers are ˹entrenched˺ in arrogance and opposition. ˹Imagine˺ how many peoples We destroyed before them, and they cried out when it was too late to escape. Quran 38:1~3 Ṣãd (The Letter Ṣãd)
Ṣãd.
By the Quran,
full of reminders !

˹This is the truth,˺
yet the disbelievers are ˹entrenched˺ in arrogance and opposition.

˹Imagine˺ how many peoples We destroyed before them,
and they cried out when it was
too late to escape.

Quran 38:1~3
 Ṣãd (The Letter Ṣãd)
صۤۚ وَٱلۡقُرۡءَانِ ذِی ٱلذِّكۡرِ بَلِ ٱلَّذِینَ كَفَرُوا۟ فِی عِزَّةࣲ وَشِقَاقࣲ كَمۡ أَهۡلَكۡنَا مِن قَبۡلِهِم مِّن قَرۡنࣲ فَنَادَوا۟ وَّلَاتَ حِینَ مَنَاص
ص، قسم ہے نصیحت بھرے قرآن کی بلکہ یہی لوگ، جنہوں نے ماننے سے انکار کیا ہے، سخت تکبر اور ضد میں مبتلا ہیں اِن سے پہلے ہم ایسی کتنی ہی قوموں کو ہلاک کر چکے ہیں (اور جب اُن کی شامت آئی ہے) تو وہ چیخ اٹھے ہیں، مگر وہ وقت بچنے کا نہیں ہوتا
Then, in v. 6-19 it has been said that whether man is conscious of this fact or not, he in any case is moving to the destination where he will appear and stand before his Lord. At that time all human beings will divide into two parts: first those whose records will be given in their right hands: they will be forgiven without any severe reckoning; second those whose records will be given them behind their back. They will wish that they should die somehow, but they will not die; instead they will be cast into Hell. They will be met with this fate because in the world they remained lost in the misunderstanding that they would never have to appear before God to render an account of their deeds, whereas their Lord was watching whatever they were doing and there was no reason why they should escape the accountability for their deeds. Their moving gradually from the life of the world to the meting out of rewards and punishments in the Hereafter was as certain as the appearance of twilight after sunset, the coming of the night after the day, the returning of men and animals to their respective abodes at night and the growing of the crescent into full moon. In conclusion, the disbelievers who repudiate the Qur’an instead of bowing down to God when they hear it, have been forewarned of a grievous punishment and the good news of limitless rewards has been given to the believers and the righteous.

Quran 29:19~22

Have they not seen how Allah originates the creation then resurrects it? That is certainly easy for Allah. Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Travel throughout the land and see how He originated the creation, then Allah will bring it into being one more time. Surely Allah is Most Capable of everything. He punishes whoever He wills, and shows mercy to whoever He wills. And you will ˹all˺ be returned to Him. And you cannot escape Him on earth or in heaven. Nor have you any protector or helper besides Allah.” Quran 29:19~22

This Surah reminds the Believers to be strong in their faith and not to give up their faith because of hardship or family pressures. Stories of previous Prophets and their followers are also mentioned here to show that the path of truth is not an easy path. It has trials and hardships.
کیا اِن لوگوں نے کبھی دیکھا ہی نہیں ہے کہ اللہ کس طرح خلق کی ابتدا کرتا ہے، پھر اُس کا اعادہ کرتا ہے؟ یقیناً یہ (اعادہ تو) اللہ کے لیے آسان تر ہے ان سے کہو کہ زمین میں چلو پھرو اور دیکھو کہ اُس نے کس طرح خلق کی ابتدا کی ہے، پھر اللہ بار دیگر بھی زندگی بخشے گا یقیناً اللہ ہر چیز پر قادر ہے جسے چاہے سزا دے اور جس پر چاہے رحم فرمائے، اُسی کی طرف تم پھیرے جانے والے ہو تم نہ زمین میں عاجز کرنے والے ہو نہ آسمان میں، اور اللہ سے بچانے والا کوئی سرپرست اور مدد گار تمہارے لیے نہیں ہے
