A collection of Ayaat in the Quran showing how even if signs are given or miracles are shown they still would not believe
Quran
Despite Signs & Miracles they do not believe
- I will turn away from My signs those who act unjustly with arrogance in the land. And even if they were to see every sign, they still would not believe in them. If they see the Right Path, they will not take it. But if they see a crooked path, they will follow it. This is because they denied Our signs and were heedless of them. Quran 7:146
- And [even] if We opened to them a gate from the heaven and they continued therein to ascend, They would say, “Our eyes have only been dazzled. Rather, we are a people affected by magic.” Quran 15:14-15
- They swear by Allah their most solemn oaths that if a sign were to come to them, they would certainly believe in it. Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Signs are only with Allah.” What will make you ˹believers˺ realize that even if a sign were to come to them, they still would not believe? Quran 6:109
- They say, “Why has no ˹visible˺ angel come with him?” Had We sent down an angel, the matter would have certainly been settled ˹at once˺, and they would have never been given more time ˹to repent˺. And if We had sent an angel, We would have certainly made it ˹assume the form of˺ a man—leaving them more confused than they already are. Quran 6:8-9
- Even if We had sent them the angels, made the dead speak to them, and assembled before their own eyes every sign ˹they demanded˺, they still would not have believed—unless Allah so willed. But most of them are ignorant ˹of this˺. Quran 6:111
- And even if We had sent down to you, [O Muḥammad], a written scripture on a page and they touched it with their hands, the disbelievers would say, “This is not but obvious magic.” Quran 6:7
- Are the disbelievers waiting for the angels to come to them, or your Lord’s Judgement? Those who went before them did the same. God did not wrong them; they wronged themselves. Quran 16:33
- If We willed, We could send down upon them a ˹compelling˺ sign from the heavens, leaving their necks bent in ˹utter˺ submission to it. Whatever new reminder comes to them from the Most Compassionate, they always turn away from it. Quran 26:4-5
Most People do not believe
- It is certainly the truth from your Lord, but most people do not believe. Quran 11:17
- And most people will not believe—no matter how keen you are—even though you are not asking them for a reward for this ˹Quran˺. It is only a reminder to the whole world. Quran 12:103-104
- What has been revealed to you ˹O Prophet˺ from your Lord is the truth, but most people do not believe. Quran 13:1
- And We have truly set forth every ˹kind of˺ lesson for humanity in this Quran, yet most people persist in disbelief. Quran 17:89
