quran:41:14 –

˹That occurred˺ when the messengers had come to them before them and after them, ˹saying˺, "Worship not except Allah." They said, "If our Lord had willed, He would have sent down the angels, so indeed we, in that with which you have been sent, are disbelievers."  

When the messengers came to them from in front of them and from behind them, that is, coming to them ˹to warn them˺ and leaving them behind ˹as they departed˺, but they disbelieved, as will be stated shortly — the destruction ˹of them meant˺ would only take place in his time — saying, ‘Worship none but God’, they said, ‘Had our Lord willed, He would have surely sent down, to us, angels; therefore we indeed disbelieve in what you, according to your claim, have been sent with!’
القرآن:٤١:١٤ –

إِذْ جَاءَتْهُمُ الرُّسُلُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ أَلَّا تَعْبُدُوا إِلَّا اللَّهَ ۖ قَالُوا لَوْ شَاءَ رَبُّنَا لَأَنْزَلَ مَلَائِكَةً فَإِنَّا بِمَا أُرْسِلْتُمْ بِهِ كَافِرُونَ  

{إذْ جاءتهم الرسل من بين أيديهم ومن خلفهم} أي مقبلين عليهم ومدبرين عنهم فكفروا كما سيأتي، والإهلاك في زمنه فقط {أن} أي بأن {لا تعبدوا إلا الله قالوا لو شاء ربنا لأنزل} علينا {ملائكة فإنا بما أرسلتم به} على زعمكم {كافرون}.
