And He alone holds sway over His servants. And He sends forth heavenly forces to watch over you until, when death approaches any of you, Our messengers cause him to die: and they do not overlook [anyone]. 61 Then all are restored to Allah, their true protector. Behold, His is the judgement. He is the swiftest of those who take account.' 62 Ask them (O Muhammad!): 'Who is it that delivers you from dangers in the deep darknesses of the land and the sea, and to whom do you call in humility and in the secrecy of your hearts? To whom do you pray: "If He will but save us from this distress, we shall most certainly be among the thankful?" 63 Say, "It is Allah who saves you from it and from every distress; then you [still] associate others with Him." 64 Say: 'He is Able to send forth upon you punishment from above you or beneath your feet, or to divide you into discordant factions, and to make some of you taste the affliction of the other' Look how We make plain Our verses, in order that they understand. 65 Your nation has belied it (the Koran), although it is the truth.

Those are they who perish by their own deserts. For them is drink of boiling water and a painful doom, because they disbelieved. 70
