هُوَ

الَّذِي

خَلَقَكُم

مِّن

طِينٍ

ثُمَّ

قَضَى

أَجَلًا

وَأَجَلٌ

مُّسَمًّى

عِندَهُ

ثُمَّ

أَنتُمْ

تَمْتَرُونَ

huwa lladhī khalaqakum min ṭīnin thumma qaḍā ʾajalan wa-ʾajalun musamman ʿindahū thumma ʾantum tamtarūna

He it is created you from clay, and then decreed a stated term (for you). And there is in His presence another determined term; yet ye doubt within yourselves!

Abdullah Yusufali

It is He who created you from clay, then ordained the term [of your life]—the specified term is with Him—and yet you are in doubt.

Ali Quli Qarai
