:sl: I kinda noticed recently after reading the Qur'an, the people of the past which followed the Prophets(Peace be upon them all) disbelieved even AFTER they've seen clear clear proof and signs but yet they still disbelieve in Allah S.W.T. like when the people of Prophet Musa A.S. went against his command and worshipped something other than Allah after they saw him splitting the sea by the will of Allah. Anyways, it makes no different than the people today is it? Be it Atheists, Christians or Jews they would never believe unless they see 'proof' but it is already clear from them. So this lead me to conclude that, the mindset of the people of the past concerning the believe in One Illah are just as the same as they are in the present. No different at all. What do you guys think?

I'm not sure what to say, but I feel like this is already mentioned somewhere in the Quran or the hadiths, lol. It would be nice if someone found the exact reference.

And how many a sign in the heavens and the earth they pass by, while they are averse therefrom (12:105)
[16.12] And He has made subservient for you the night and the day and the sun and the moon, and the stars are made subservient by His commandment; most surely there are signs in this for a people who ponder;
Those who do not know say, "Why does Allah not speak to us or there come to us a sign?" Thus spoke those before them like their words. Their hearts resemble each other. We have shown clearly the signs to a people who are certain [in faith].
Qur'an [41:53]

السلام عليكم
It's incredible how true this is. There are certainly people out there, that no matter what, would reject any sign that God shows them.
I remember asking an Atheist; "If you saw Jesus(عليه الصلاة والسلام) raise someone from the dead in front of you, would you become a believer?" His reply was, "No, I'd just think it was some kind of magic trick or rational explanation for it".
Subhanallah, the following verse immediately came to mind.
وَلَوْ فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِم بَابًا مِّنَ السَّمَاءِ فَظَلُّوا فِيهِ يَعْرُجُونَ لَقَالُوا إِنَّمَا سُكِّرَتْ أَبْصَارُنَا بَلْ نَحْنُ قَوْمٌ مَّسْحُورُونَ
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." [Qur'an 15:14-15]
