Az-Zumar 39:38 ولين سالتهم من خلق السماوات والارض ليقولن الله قل افرايتم ما تدعون من دون الله ان ارادني الله بضر هل هن كاشفات ضره او ارادني برحمة هل هن ممسكات رحمته قل حسبي الله عليه يتوكل المتوكلون ٣٨
وَلَئِن
سَأَلۡتَهُم
مَّنۡ
خَلَقَ
ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ
وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ
لَيَقُولُنَّ
ٱللَّهُۚ
قُلۡ
أَفَرَءَيۡتُم
مَّا
تَدۡعُونَ
مِن
دُونِ
ٱللَّهِ
إِنۡ
أَرَادَنِيَ
ٱللَّهُ
بِضُرٍّ
هَلۡ
هُنَّ
كَٰشِفَٰتُ
ضُرِّهِۦٓ
أَوۡ
أَرَادَنِي
بِرَحۡمَةٍ
هَلۡ
هُنَّ
مُمۡسِكَٰتُ
رَحۡمَتِهِۦۚ
قُلۡ
حَسۡبِيَ
ٱللَّهُۖ
عَلَيۡهِ
يَتَوَكَّلُ
ٱلۡمُتَوَكِّلُونَ

And if you asked them, "Who created the heavens and the earth?" they would surely say, "Allāh." Say, "Then have you considered1 what you invoke besides Allāh? If Allāh intended me harm, are they removers of His harm; or if He intended me mercy, are they withholders of His mercy?" Say, "Sufficient for me is Allāh; upon Him [alone] rely the [wise] reliers."

If you ask them ˹O Prophet˺ who created the heavens and the earth, they will certainly say, “Allah!” Ask ˹them˺, “Consider then whatever ˹idols˺ you invoke besides Allah: if it was Allah’s Will to harm me, could they undo that harm? Or if He willed ˹some˺ mercy for me, could they withhold His mercy?” Say, “Allah is sufficient for me. In Him ˹alone˺ the faithful put their trust.”
