15فَأَمّا عادٌ فَاستَكبَروا فِي الأَرضِ بِغَيرِ الحَقِّ وَقالوا مَن أَشَدُّ مِنّا قُوَّةً ۖ أَوَلَم يَرَوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ الَّذي خَلَقَهُم هُوَ أَشَدُّ مِنهُم قُوَّةً ۖ وَكانوا بِآياتِنا يَجحَدونَN. J. DawoodAs for ‘Ād, they conducted themselves with arrogance and injustice in the land. ‘Who is mightier than we?’ they used to say. Could they not see that God, who had created them, was mightier than they? Yet they denied Our revelations.
