وَيَسْتَعْجِلُونَكَ
بِالْعَذَابِ
وَلَن
يُخْلِفَ
اللَّهُ
وَعْدَهُ
وَإِنَّ
يَوْمًا
عِندَ
رَبِّكَ
كَأَلْفِ
سَنَةٍ
مِّمَّا
تَعُدُّونَ
wa-yastaʿjilūnaka bi-l-ʿadhābi wa-lan yukhlifa llāhu waʿdahū wa-ʾinna yawman ʿinda rabbika ka-ʾalfi sanatin mimmā taʿuddūna
Yet they ask thee to hasten on the Punishment! But Allah will not fail in His Promise. Verily a Day in the sight of thy Lord is like a thousand years of your reckoning.
— Abdullah Yusufali
They ask you to hasten the punishment, though Allah will never break His promise. Indeed a day with your Lord is like a thousand years by your reckoning.
