And what would have happened were a Qur'an to be revealed wherewith mountains could be set in motion, or the earth cleft, or the dead made to speak? (To show such signs is not at all difficult for) everything rests entirely with Allah. So, do not the people of faith (still look forward to such a sign in response to the demand of the unbelievers and) despair as a result of knowing that had Allah so willed, He could have guided all to the Truth. Misfortune continues to afflict the unbelievers on account of their misdeeds, or to befall on locations close to their habitation. This will continue until Allah's promise (of chastisement) is fulfilled. Indeed Allah does not go back upon His promise.
仮令一部のクルアーンがあって，それにより山々が移動され，大地が裂かれ，または死者に語らせることが出来ても，凡ての命令はアッラーに属すのである。アッラーの御心があれば，人類を一斉に導かれることを，信仰する者たちは未だに納得していないのか。だが不信者たちはかれらの（悪い）行いのために，アッラーの約束が実現するまで災厄がかれらの住まいとその付近に絶えることなく付きまとう。本当にアッラーは決して約束を違えられない。
