Have you not considered him (Namrud) who disputed with Ibrahim about his Lord, because Allah had given him the kingdom? When Ibrahim said: My Lord is He who gives life and causes to die, he said: I give life and cause death. Ibrahim said: So surely Allah causes the sun to rise from the east, then make it rise from the west; thus he who disbelieved was confounded; and Allah does not guide aright the unjust people.

He said: If you have come with a sign, then bring it, if you are of the truthful ones.

Said he: Bring it then, if you are of the truthful ones.

You are naught but a mortal like ourselves; so bring a sign if you are one of the truthful.
