And if Allah were to impose blame on the people for their wrongdoing, He would not have left upon the earth any creature, but He defers them for a specified term. And when their term has come, they will not remain behind an hour, nor will they precede [it].
Allah says: “And to Allah belong the best names, so invoke Him by them” (Quran 7:180).
