39 Disbelievers are liars.
45 Do those who plan evil deeds think that Allah won't cause the earth to swallow them, or that some unknown doom will fall upon them when they least expect it?

116-7 Those who invent lies against Allah will not succeed and will have a painful doom.
1 He [Allah] carried his servant [Muhammad] one night from the Inviolable Place of Worship [in Mecca] to the Far distant place of worship [in Jerusalem]. We [Allah] did this to show him our tokens!
3 Noah was a grateful slave.
8 We have made hell a dungeon for disbelievers. 10 We have prepared a painful doom for those who disbelieve in the hereafter. 16 We (the Word of doom) destroyed entire towns by annihilating them with complete annihilation.
17 How many generations have we destroyed since Noah! 18 We have created a hell for those who desire life in this world.

63-64 Allah said to Iblis, “Okay that sounds good. But whoever follows you will go to hell. Entice as many as you can with your voice, horse, foot, and promises.”
72 Whoever is blind here will be blind in the hereafter.
