15:11  And not an apostle came unto them but at him they were wont to mock
15:12  Even so we make a way for it in the hearts of the culprits
15:13  They believe not therein, and already the example of the ancients hath gone forth
15:14  And if We opened upon them a door of the heaven, and they passed the day mounting thereto

15:29  Then when I have formed him and breathed into him of My Spirit fall down unto him prostrate
15:30  So the angels prostrated themselves, all of them together

15:32  Allah said: O Iblis! what aileth thou that thou art not with the prostrates
15:33  He said it was not for me that should prostrate myself unto a human being whom Thou hast created from ringing clay of loam moulded

15:41  Allah said: this is the path leeding unto Me straight
15:42  Verily as for My bondmen, no authority shalt thou have over them, except the erring one who follow thee
15:43  And verily Hell is the place promised unto them all
15:44  Unto it are seven portals; unto each portal is a Portion of them assigned

15:47  And We shall have removed whatsoever of grudge may be in their breasts: brethren they. sitting upon couches facing each other

15:54  He said: bear ye me glad tidings when old age hath touched me? of what then ye bear me glad tidings
15:55  They said: we bear tidings of a truth; be then thou not of the desponding
15:56  He said: and who despondeth of the mercy of his Lord except the astra

15:64  And we have brought unto thee the truth, and verily we say sooth
15:65  So set out thou with thy house hold in a portion of the night, and follow thou their backs, and let not one of you look back, and pass whither ye are commanded
15:66  And We decreed unto him this commandment because the last of those was to be cut off in the early morning

15:72  By thy life, in their intoxication they were wandering bewildered
15:73  Then the shout took hold of them at the sunrise
15:74  And We made the upside there of downwards, and We rained on them stones of baked clay

15:76  And verily they are on a pathway lasting

15:93  For that which they have been working

15:95  Verily We will suffice unto thee against the mockers
15:96  Who set up along with Allah anot her god; presently they shall know
15:97  And assuredly We know that thou straitenest thy breast by that which they say
15:98  So hallow thou the praise of thy Lord, and be thou of the prostrate
15:99  And worship thy Lord until there cometh unto thee the certainty
