إِذًا
لَّأَذَقْنَاكَ
ضِعْفَ
الْحَيَاةِ
وَضِعْفَ
الْمَمَاتِ
ثُمَّ
لَا
تَجِدُ
لَكَ
عَلَيْنَا
نَصِيرًا
ʾidhan la-ʾadhaqnāka ḍiʿfa l-ḥayāti wa-ḍiʿfa l-mamāti thumma lā tajidu laka ʿalaynā naṣīran
Then We would have surely made you taste a double [punishment] in this life and a double [punishment] after death, and then you would have not found for yourself any helper against Us.
— Ali Quli Qarai
In that case We should have made thee taste an equal portion (of punishment) in this life, and an equal portion in death: and moreover thou wouldst have found none to help thee against Us!
