@ 684 The messengers of Allah and their doubting nations 10:47-53
10:47 Every nation has its Messenger. Then, when their Messenger comes the matter is justly decided between them; they are not wronged.
# وَلِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ رَّسُولٌ فَإِذَا جَاءَ رَسُولُهُمْ قُضِيَ بَيْنَهُم بِالْقِسْطِ وَهُمْ لاَ يُظْلَمُونَ 47
10:48 They ask, 'If what you say is true, when will this promise come?'
# وَيَقُولُونَ مَتَى هَذَا الوَعْدُ إِن كُنتُمْ صَادِقِينَ 48
10:49 Say, 'I have no power to benefit or harm myself except as Allah wills. To every nation is a fixed term and when their term comes they cannot delay it for an hour, nor can they bring it forward.
# قُل لاَّ أَمْلِكُ لِنَفْسِي ضَراًّ وَلاَ نَفْعاً إِلاَّ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ لِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ أَجَلٌ إِذَا جَاءَ أَجَلُهُمْ فَلاَ يَسْتَئْخِرُونَ سَاعَةً وَلاَ يَسْتَقْدِمُونَ 49
10:50 Say, 'Have you considered? Should His punishment come upon you by night or by day, what (part) of it would the sinners try to hasten?'
# قُلْ أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ أَتَاكُمْ عَذَابُهُ بَيَاتاً أَوْ نَهَاراً مَّاذَا يَسْتَعْجِلُ مِنْهُ المُجْرِمُونَ 50
10:51 And when it overtakes you, is it then that you will believe in it, now, when you already try to hasten it!
# أَثُمَّ إِذَا مَا وَقَعَ آمَنتُم بِهِ آلآنَ وَقَدْ كُنتُم بِهِ تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ 51
10:52 Then it shall be said to the evildoers, 'Taste the punishment of eternity! Shall you be recompensed except according to what you earned?'
# ثُمَّ قِيلَ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا ذُوقُوا عَذَابَ الخُلْدِ هَلْ تُجْزَوْنَ إِلاَّ بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَكْسِبُونَ 52
10:53 They ask you to tell them if it is true. Say, 'Yes, by my Lord! It is true, and you cannot frustrate it!'
# وَيَسْتَنْبِئُونَكَ أَحَقٌّ هُوَ قُلْ إِي وَرَبِّي إِنَّهُ لَحَقٌّ وَمَا أَنتُم بِمُعْجِزِينَ 53
