Verse (11:12)

The analysis above refers to the twelfth verse of chapter 11 (sūrat hūd):

Sahih International: Then would you possibly leave [out] some of what is revealed to you, or is your breast constrained by it because they say, "Why has there not been sent down to him a treasure or come with him an angel?" But you are only a warner. And Allah is Disposer of all things.
