Question about the Quran?

Why would Allah make it so that people couldn't come to him?

Update:

"Allah has set a seal on their hearts and on their hearings, and on their eyes there is a covering. Theirs will be a great torment." From Al Baqarah, 2:7.

    Allah seals hearts of some people who constantly deny accepting Messenger of Allah. So finally Allah seals their hearts as punishment. After they are blinded and can never see the truth in Islam.

    Allah sealed hearts of many leaders of Meccan Idolators. They finally came to fight against Prophet and his companions in battle field of Badr, where 70 leaders of Idolaters were killed as Kaafirs (unbelievers). Abu Jahl was killed in Badr by two 17 years old boys and Abu Lahab uncle of Prophet who was staunch enemy of Prophet Mohammad SAW died as Kaafir in Mecca. Lot many more idolater leaders died in battle of Badr . I can't remember their Arab names.

    Allah seals the hearts of people who deserve it like arrogant people, those who deny the existence of Allah, those who indulge in committing sins and are proud to ask forgiveness from Allah, etc.

    It is Muhammad claim so his followers did not ask why others would not listen to their preaches.

    It just some lame excuse so his followers didn't so disappointed.

    God: Oh Muhammad ,I prefer muslims in later than now

    prophet : why my lord?

    God: they will be spending a great deal of time with world's issue, get involved in variety of improvements,, at time they'll get closer to me at least for a second, I loved those muslims'
