57:16
أَلَمْ
يَأْنِ
لِلَّذِينَ
آمَنُوا
أَن
تَخْشَعَ
قُلُوبُهُمْ
لِذِكْرِ
اللَّهِ
وَمَا
نَزَلَ
مِنَ
الْحَقِّ
وَلَا
يَكُونُوا
كَالَّذِينَ
أُوتُوا
الْكِتَابَ
مِن
قَبْلُ
فَطَالَ
عَلَيْهِمُ
الْأَمَدُ
فَقَسَتْ
قُلُوبُهُمْ
وَكَثِيرٌ
مِّنْهُمْ
فَاسِقُونَ
ʾa-lam yaʾni li-lladhīna ʾāmanū ʾan takhshaʿa qulūbuhum li-dhikri llāhi wa-mā nazala mina l-ḥaqqi wa-lā yakūnū ka-lladhīna ʾūtū l-kitāba min qablu fa-ṭāla ʿalayhimu l-ʾamadu fa-qasat qulūbuhum wa-kathīrun minhum fāsiqūna
Is it not time for the hearts of the believers to become humbled by the remembrance of God and by the Truth which has been revealed so that they will not be like the followers of the Bible who lived before them and whose hearts have become hard like stone through the long years. Many of them are evil doers.
