Qabasمَا نُنَزِّلُ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ إِلَّا بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَمَا كَانُوٓاْ إِذٗا مُّنظَرِينَ ٨
Mā nunazzilul-malā'ikata illā bil-haqqi wamā kānū idham munzarīn
We do not send down the angels except with truth;671 and they [i.e., the disbelievers] would not then be reprieved.
Footnotes
671 i.e., with a message or, as the conclusion of the verse suggests, to carry out a promised punishment.
