وكذبوا بآياتنا كذابا

So taste! for We will not add to you aught but chastisement.

A reward from your Lord, a gift according to a reckoning:

رب السماوات والأرض وما بينهما الرحمن ۖ لا يملكون منه خطابا

يوم يقوم الروح والملائكة صفا ۖ لا يتكلمون إلا من أذن له الرحمن وقال صوابا

That is the sure day, so whoever desires may take refuge with his Lord.

Arabic

ذلك اليوم الحق ۖ فمن شاء اتخذ إلى ربه مآبا

Surely We have warned you of a chastisement near at hand: the day when man shall see what his two hands have sent before, and the unbeliever shall say: O! would that I were dust!

Arabic

إنا أنذرناكم عذابا قريبا يوم ينظر المرء ما قدمت يداه ويقول الكافر يا ليتني كنت ترابا
