(21:25) And We sent not before you any messenger except that We revealed to him that, "There is no deity except Me, so worship Me." (21:26) And they say, "The Most Merciful has taken a son." Exalted is He! Rather, they are [but] honored servants. (21:27) They cannot precede Him in word, and they act by His command. (21:28) He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they cannot intercede except on behalf of one whom He approves. And they, from fear of Him, are apprehensive. (21:29) And whoever of them should say, "Indeed, I am a god besides Him"- that one We would recompense with Hell. Thus do We recompense the wrongdoers. (21:30) Have those who disbelieved not considered that the heavens and the earth were a joined entity, and We separated them and made from water every living thing? Then will they not believe? (21:31) And We placed within the earth firmly set mountains, lest it should shift with them, and We made therein [mountain] passes [as] roads that they might be guided.
