وَلَوْ يُؤَاخِذُ اللہُ النَّاسَ بِظُلْمِہِمْ مَّا تَرَكَ عَلَيْہَا مِنْ دَاۗبَّۃٍ وَّلٰكِنْ يُّؤَخِّرُہُمْ اِلٰۗى اَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى۝۰ۚ فَاِذَا جَاۗءَ اَجَلُہُمْ لَا يَسْـتَاْخِرُوْنَ سَاعَۃً وَّلَا يَسْتَقْدِمُوْنَ۝۶۱
Walaw yuakhithu Allahu alnnasa bithulmihim ma taraka AAalayha min dabbatin walakin yuakhkhiruhum ila ajalin musamman faitha jaa ajaluhum la yastakhiroona saAAatan wala yastaqdimoona

English

Ahmed Ali

If God were to punish men for their inequity He would not leave a single moving thing on earth. Yet He gives them latitude for a time ordained. When that time is come, there will not be a moment's delay nor a moment's haste.

61

وَيَجْعَلُوْنَ لِلہِ مَا يَكْرَہُوْنَ وَتَصِفُ اَلْسِـنَتُہُمُ الْكَذِبَ اَنَّ لَہُمُ الْحُسْنٰى۝۰ۭ لَا جَرَمَ اَنَّ لَہُمُ النَّارَ وَاَنَّہُمْ مُّفْرَطُوْنَ۝۶۲
WayajAAaloona lillahi ma yakrahoona watasifu alsinatuhumu alkathiba anna lahumu alhusna la jarama anna lahumu alnnara waannahum mufratoona

English

Ahmed Ali

Yet they attribute to God what they find detestable; and their tongues assert the lie that for them is only good. On the contrary, there is Fire for them, and they will be thrown into it.

62

تَاللہِ لَقَدْ اَرْسَلْنَاۗ اِلٰۗى اُمَمٍ مِّنْ قَبْلِكَ فَزَيَّنَ لَہُمُ الشَّيْطٰنُ اَعْمَالَہُمْ فَہُوَوَلِيُّہُمُ الْيَوْمَ وَلَہُمْ عَذَابٌ اَلِيْمٌ۝۶۳

By God, We sent apostles to many a people before you, but Satan made their acts seem attractive to them, and he is their friend this day, and a painful torment awaits them.
