لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ يُحْيِي وَيُمِيتُ ۖ رَبُّكُمْ وَرَبُّ آبَائِكُمُ الْأَوَّلِينَ ٨
There is no god but He: It is He Who gives life and gives death,- The Lord and Cherisher to you and your earliest ancestors.
لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ يُحْيِي وَيُمِيتُ ۖ رَبُّكُمْ وَرَبُّ آبَائِكُمُ الْأَوَّلِينَ ٨
There is no god but He: It is He Who gives life and gives death,- The Lord and Cherisher to you and your earliest ancestors.
بَلْ هُمْ فِي شَكٍّ يَلْعَبُونَ ٩
Yet they play about in doubt.
فَارْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِي السَّمَاءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُبِينٍ ١٠
Then watch thou for the Day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke (or mist) plainly visible,
يَغْشَى النَّاسَ ۖ هَٰذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ ١١
Enveloping the people: this will be a Penalty Grievous.
رَبَّنَا اكْشِفْ عَنَّا الْعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤْمِنُونَ ١٢
(They will say:) "Our Lord! remove the Penalty from us, for we do really believe!"
