بَلِ ادّارَكَ عِلمُهُم فِي الآخِرَةِ ۚ بَل هُم في شَكٍّ مِنها ۖ بَل هُم مِنها عَمونَ
Rather, their knowledge is arrested concerning the Hereafter. Rather, they are in doubt about it. Rather, they are, concerning it, blind.
وَقالَ الَّذينَ كَفَروا أَإِذا كُنّا تُرابًا وَآباؤُنا أَئِنّا لَمُخرَجونَ
And those who disbelieve say, "When we have become dust as well as our forefathers, will we indeed be brought out [of the graves]?
لَقَد وُعِدنا هـٰذا نَحنُ وَآباؤُنا مِن قَبلُ إِن هـٰذا إِلّا أَساطيرُ الأَوَّلينَ
We have been promised this, we and our forefathers, before. This is not but legends of the former peoples."
قُل سيروا فِي الأَرضِ فَانظُروا كَيفَ كانَ عاقِبَةُ المُجرِمينَ
Say, [O Muhammad], "Travel through the land and observe how was the end of the criminals."
وَلا تَحزَن عَلَيهِم وَلا تَكُن في ضَيقٍ مِمّا يَمكُرونَ
And grieve not over them or be in distress from what they conspire.
وَيَقولونَ مَتىٰ هـٰذَا الوَعدُ إِن كُنتُم صادِقينَ
And they say, "When is [the fulfillment of] this promise, if you should be truthful?"
قُل عَسىٰ أَن يَكونَ رَدِفَ لَكُم بَعضُ الَّذي تَستَعجِلونَ
Say, "Perhaps it is close behind you - some of that for which you are impatient.
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَذو فَضلٍ عَلَى النّاسِ وَلـٰكِنَّ أَكثَرَهُم لا يَشكُرونَ
And indeed, your Lord is full of bounty for the people, but most of them do not show gratitude."
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَيَعلَمُ ما تُكِنُّ صُدورُهُم وَما يُعلِنونَ
And indeed, your Lord knows what their breasts conceal and what they declare.
وَما مِن غائِبَةٍ فِي السَّماءِ وَالأَرضِ إِلّا في كِتابٍ مُبينٍ
And there is nothing concealed within the heaven and the earth except that it is in a clear Register.
إِنَّ هـٰذَا القُرآنَ يَقُصُّ عَلىٰ بَني إِسرائيلَ أَكثَرَ الَّذي هُم فيهِ يَختَلِفونَ
Indeed, this Qur'an relates to the Children of Israel most of that over which they disagree.
