Read in Context

Chapter 17, Page 287, Juz 15

45. When you recite the Qur'an, We place a hidden barrier between you and those who do not believe in the Hereafter; 46. and We place a covering on their hearts so that they do not comprehend it, and We cause a heaviness in their ears; and when you mention your Lord, the Only True Lord, in the Qur'an, they turn their backs in aversion. 47. We are well aware of what they wish to hear when they listen to you and what they say when they confer in whispers, when the wrong-doers say: "You are only following one who is bewitched." 48. Just see how strange are the things they invent about you. They have altogether strayed, and are unable to find the right way. 49. They say: "When we are turned to bones and particles (of dust), shall we truly be raised up as a new creation?" 50. Tell them: "(You will be raised afresh even if) you turn to stone or iron, 51. or any other form of creation you deem hardest of all (to recreate from)." They will certainly ask: "Who will bring us back (to life)?" Say: "He Who created you in the first instance." They will shake their heads at you and inquire: "When will that be?" Say: "Perhaps that time might have drawn near; 52. on the Day when He will call you and you will rise praising Him in response to His call, and you will believe that you had lain in this state only for a while."
