Quran 41:14 — Detailed (Fussilat)

Their messengers went to them, as well as before them and after them, saying, "You shall not worship except GOD." They said, "Had our Lord willed, He could have sent angels. We are disbelievers in what you say."

[41:13] If they turn away, then say, "I am warning you of a disaster like the disaster that annihilated 'Ãd and Thamoud."

[41:15] As for 'Ãd, they turned arrogant on earth, opposed the truth, and said, "Who is more powerful than we?" Did they not realize that GOD, who created them, is more powerful than they? They were unappreciative of our revelations.
