Ali Quli Qarai, The Qur’ān with a Phrase-by-Phrase English Translation (2005)
26 Say, ‘It is Allah who gives you life,
then He makes you die.
Then He will gather you
on the Day of Resurrection,
in which there is no doubt.
But most people do not know.’
27 To Allah belongs the kingdom of the heavens
and the earth,
and when the Hour sets in,
the falsifiers will be losers on that day.
28 And you will see every nation fallen on its knees.
Every nation will be summoned to its book:
‘Today you will be requited for
what you used to do.
29 This is Our book, which speaks truly against you.
Indeed We used to record what you used to do.’
30 As for those who have faith
and do righteous deeds,
their Lord will admit them into His mercy.
That is the manifest success!
31 But as for the faithless, [they will be asked,]
‘Were not My signs recited to you?
But you were disdainful,
and you were a guilty lot.
32 And when it was said,
“Allah’s promise is indeed true,
and there is no doubt about the Hour,”
you said, “We do not know what the Hour is.
We know nothing beyond conjectures,
and we do not possess any certainty.” ’
