quote: ''
summary: The passage contrasts believers with impious transgressors, assigning gardens
to the righteous and hell fire to the wicked. It states that God gives worldly
warning before the greater punishment, recalls the law given to Moses as guidance
for Israel with appointed teachers, affirms divine judgment on the day of resurrection,
points to destroyed generations and rain reviving parched land as signs, and answers
the unbelievers' question about the day of decision.
