Koran 26:176-191

26:176 The companions of the thicket denied the messengers 177 When Shu’ayb said to them, “Will you not fear Allah? 178 Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger. 179 So fear Allah and obey me. 180 And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds. 181 Give full measure and do not be of those who cause loss. 182 And weigh with an even balance. 183 And do not deprive people of their due and do not commit abuse on earth, spreading corruption. 184 And fear He who created you and the former creation.”

185 They said, “You are only of those affected by magic. 186 You are but a man like ourselves, and indeed, we think you are among the liars. 187 So cause to fall upon us fragments of the sky, if you should be of the truthful.”

188 He said, “My Lord is most knowing of what you do.”

189 And they denied him, so the punishment of the day of the black cloud seized them. Indeed, it was the punishment of a terrible day.

190 Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.

191 And indeed, your Lord – He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.

Koran 26:176-191

This is another bad summary and corrupt repetition of the story of Shuaib.

Notice that Muhammad, pretending to be Shuaib, desires to rule over the Quraysh with: “obey me.” Muhammad was a tyrant, evil and wicked.

As such, the best replacement for this passage is: “”, the empty sentence.
