Ad milleti, yeryüzünde haksız yere büyüklük taslamış, "Bizden daha kuvvetli kim vardır?" demişti. Onlar, kendilerini yaratan Allah'ın onlardan daha kuvvetli olduğunu görmüyorlardı değil mi? Ayetlerimizi bile bile inkar ediyorlardı.

Âd kavmine gelince onlar yeryüzünde büyüklük tasladılar ve: "Bizden daha kuvvetli kim vardır?" dediler. Onlar kendilerini yaratan Allah'ın kendilerinden daha kuvvetli olduğunu görmediler mi? Onlar bizim âyetlerimizi bile bile inkâr ediyorlardı.

Elmalılı Hamdi Yazırpublic-domain

Âd kavmine gelince, yeryüzünde haksız yere kibirlenmiş ve “Bizden daha kuvvetli kim var!” demişlerdi. Onlar, kendilerini yaratan Allah’ın, onlardan çok daha kuvvetli olduğunu görmediler mi? Onlar, ayetlerimizi inkâr ediyorlardı.

فأما عاد قوم هود فقد استعلَوا في الأرض على العباد بغير حق، وقالوا في غرور: مَن أشد منا قوة؟ أولم يروا أن الله تعالى الذي خلقهم هو أشدُّ منهم قوة وبطشًا؟ وكانوا بأدلتنا وحججنا يجحدون.
