the messengers whom we raised before you and to whom we sent down revelations were only human beings and were from among those living in earthly habitations. have these people not travelled in the earth that they may observe the end of their predecessors? certainly the abode of the hereafter is much better for those acted in a godfearing manner. will you still not act with good sense?
