وَلَا
تَحْسَبَنَّ
اللَّهَ
غَافِلًا
عَمَّا
يَعْمَلُ
الظَّالِمُونَ
إِنَّمَا
يُؤَخِّرُهُمْ
لِيَوْمٍ
تَشْخَصُ
فِيهِ
الْأَبْصَارُ
wa-lā taḥsabanna llāha ghāfilan ʿammā yaʿmalu ẓ-ẓālimūna ʾinnamā yuʾakhkhiruhum li-yawmin tashkhaṣu fīhi l-ʾabṣāru
Think not that Allah doth not heed the deeds of those who do wrong. He but giveth them respite against a Day when the eyes will fixedly stare in horror,-
— Abdullah Yusufali
Do not suppose that Allah is oblivious of what the wrongdoers are doing. He is only granting them respite until the day when the eyes will be glazed.
