ٱلْقَلَم

68:42

يَوْمَ

يُكْشَفُ

عَن

سَاقٍ

وَيُدْعَوْنَ

إِلَى

السُّجُودِ

فَلَا

يَسْتَطِيعُونَ

yawma yukshafu ʿan sāqin wa-yudʿawna ʾilā s-sujūdi fa-lā yastaṭīʿūna

On the day when the terrible torment approaches, they will be told (in a mocking way) to prostrate themselves, but they will not be able to do it.

Muhammad Sarwar
