And now that We replace one message by another - since God is fully aware of what He bestows from on high, step by step - they [who deny the truth] are wont to say: "Thou but inventest it!" Nay, but most of them do not understand it! 101 Say, the Holy Spirit has brought the revelation from thy Lord in Truth, in order to strengthen those who believe, and as a Guide and Glad Tidings to Muslims. 102 And assuredly We know that they say: it is only a human being who teacheth him. The speech of him unto whom they incline is foreign while this is Arabic speech plain. 103 God will not guide those who do not believe in His miracles. They will suffer a painful punishment. 104 Only they invent falsehood who believe not Allah's revelations, and (only) they are the liars. 105 The one who disbelieves in Allah after accepting faith – except him who is forced to and whose heart is still firmly upon faith – but whoever is wholeheartedly a disbeliever, upon them is the wrath of Allah; and for them is a great punishment. 106 This is because they have given preference to this life over the life to come and God does not guide disbelieving people. 107 These are they upon whose hearts and hearing and sight Allah hath set a seal; and these! they are the negligent. 108 Undoubtedly they in the Hereafter shall be the very losers. 109 ۞ And surely your Lord will be Most Forgiving and Most Merciful towards those who left their homes after they were persecuted, and who thereafter struggled hard and remained constant. 110
