Sura 42
Aya 8
8
وَلَو شاءَ اللَّهُ لَجَعَلَهُم أُمَّةً واحِدَةً وَلٰكِن يُدخِلُ مَن يَشاءُ في رَحمَتِهِ ۚ وَالظّالِمونَ ما لَهُم مِن وَلِيٍّ وَلا نَصيرٍ

Bijan Moeinian

Had God willed, He would have made everybody the member of one community [Muslim]. Instead, God [has given man the freedom of choice to chose between good and bad and] will admits whoever He wills [and deserves] into His mercy and the wrongdoers [who will naturally not be admitted into His mercy] have neither any protector nor a helper.
