have you not considered the case of the person who had an argument with abraham as to `whom abraham acknowledged as his lord? the dispute arose because allah had given him the kingship . when abraham said my lord is he who gives life and causes death he answered i give life and cause death. then abraham said well allah brings the sun from the east just bring it from the west. at this the disbeliever was confounded for allah does not show guidance to unjust people.
ألم تر إلى الذي حاج إبراهيم في ربه أن آتاه الله الملك إذ قال إبراهيم ربي الذي يحيي ويميت قال أنا أحيي وأميت قال إبراهيم فإن الله يأتي بالشمس من المشرق فأت بها من المغرب فبهت الذي كفر والله لا يهدي القوم الظالمين
