Ayah: 16

۞ أَلَمۡ يَأۡنِ لِلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ أَن تَخۡشَعَ قُلُوبُهُمۡ لِذِكۡرِ ٱللَّهِ وَمَا نَزَلَ مِنَ ٱلۡحَقِّ وَلَا يَكُونُواْ كَٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ مِن قَبۡلُ فَطَالَ عَلَيۡهِمُ ٱلۡأَمَدُ فَقَسَتۡ قُلُوبُهُمۡۖ وَكَثِيرٞ مِّنۡهُمۡ فَٰسِقُونَ

Have not the time yet come for those who believe that their hearts should be humble for the Remembrance of Allāh, and what has been sent down of the Truth? And that they should not be like those who were given the Scripture before⁸, But the span of time was too long for them, such that their hearts have become hard (like stone)9. Many of them are rebellious 'against God'.
