وَاعْتَصِمُوا بِحَبْلِ اللَّهِ جَمِيعا ً وَلاَ تَفَرَّقُوا وَاذْكُرُوا نِعْمَةَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ إِذْ كُنْتُمْ أَعْدَاء ً فَأَلَّفَ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِكُمْ فَأَصْبَحْتُمْ بِنِعْمَتِهِ~ِ إِخْوَانا ً وَكُنْتُمْ عَلَى شَفَا حُفْرَة ٍ مِنَ النَّارِ فَأَنْقَذَكُمْ مِنْهَا كَذَلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ آيَاتِه ِِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُونَ

And hold firmly to the rope of God, all of you, and do not be separated. And remember the blessing of God upon you when you were enemies and He united your hearts. Then you became, with His blessing, brothers; and you were on the edge of a pit of fire and He saved you from it; it is thus that God clarifies for you His signs that you may be guided.

أَأَتَّخِذُ مِنْ دُونِهِ آلِهَة ً إِنْ يُرِدْنِ الرَّحْمَنُ بِضُرّ ٍ لاَ تُغْنِ عَنِّي شَفَاعَتُهُمْ شَيْئا ً وَلاَ يُنقِذُونِ
'A'attakhidhu Min Dūnihi 'Ālihatan 'In Yuridni Ar-Raĥmānu BiĐurrin Lā Tughni `Annī Shafā`atuhum Shay'āan Wa Lā Yunqidhūni
Shall I take gods besides Him? If the Almighty intends any harm for me, their intercession cannot help me in the least, nor can they save me.
39:19
أَفَمَنْ حَقَّ عَلَيْهِ كَلِمَةُ الْعَذَابِ أَفَأَنْتَ تُنقِذُ مَنْ فِي النَّارِ
'Afaman Ĥaqqa `Alayhi Kalimatu Al-`Adhābi 'Afa'anta Tunqidhu Man Fī An-Nāri
As for those who have deserved the retribution; can you save those who are in the Fire?

وَإِنْ نَشَأْ نُغْرِقْهُمْ فَلاَ صَرِيخَ لَهُمْ وَلاَ هُمْ يُنقَذُونَ
Wa 'In Nasha' Nughriqhum Falā Şarīkha Lahum Wa Lā Hum Yunqadhūna
And if We wished, We could drown them, so that their screaming would not be heard, nor could they be saved.

يَاأَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ضُرِبَ مَثَل ٌ فَاسْتَمِعُوا لَهُ~ُ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ تَدْعُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ لَنْ يَخْلُقُوا ذُبَابا ً وَلَوِ اجْتَمَعُوا لَه ُُ وَإِنْ يَسْلُبْهُمُ الذُّبَابُ شَيْئا ً لاَ يَسْتَنقِذُوه ُُ مِنْهُ ضَعُفَ الطَّالِبُ وَالْمَطْلُوبُ

O people, an example is being put forth so listen to it: those you call upon besides God will not create a fly even if they all gathered to do so. And if the fly takes anything from them, they will not be able to return anything from it. Weak is both the seeker and the sought!
