وَأَمّا مَن خافَ مَقامَ رَبِّهِ وَنَهَى النَّفسَ عَنِ الهَوىٰ

But as for he who feared the position of his Lord and prevented the soul from [unlawful] inclination,

فَإِنَّ الجَنَّةَ هِيَ المَأوىٰ

Then indeed, Paradise will be [his] refuge.

يَسأَلونَكَ عَنِ السّاعَةِ أَيّانَ مُرساها

They ask you, [O Muhammad], about the Hour: when is its arrival?

فيمَ أَنتَ مِن ذِكراها

In what [position] are you that you should mention it?

إِلىٰ رَبِّكَ مُنتَهاها

To your Lord is its finality.

كَأَنَّهُم يَومَ يَرَونَها لَم يَلبَثوا إِلّا عَشِيَّةً أَو ضُحاها

It will be, on the Day they see it, as though they had not remained [in the world] except for an afternoon or a morning thereof.
