And for every nation there is a doom, so when their doom is come they shall not remain behind the least while, nor shall they go before.

Say: I do not control for myself any harm, or any benefit except what Allah pleases; every nation has a term; when their term comes, they shall not then remain behind for an hour, nor can they go before (their time).

And certainly We know those of you who have gone before and We certainly know those who shall come later.

And if Allah had destroyed men for their iniquity, He would not leave on the earth a single creature, but He respites them till an appointed time; so when their doom will come they shall not be able to delay (it) an hour nor can they bring (it) on (before its time).

Say: You have the appointment of a day from which you cannot hold back any while, nor can you bring it on.

That Allah may forgive your community their past faults and those to follow and complete His favor to you and keep you on a right way,

Surely your Lord knows that you pass in prayer nearly two-thirds of the night, and (sometimes) half of it, and (sometimes) a third of it, and (also) a party of those with you; and Allah measures the night and the day. He knows that you are not able to do it, so He has turned to you (mercifully), therefore read what is easy of the Quran. He knows that there must be among you sick, and others who travel in the land seeking of the bounty of Allah, and others who fight in Allah's way, therefore read as much of it as is easy (to you), and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate and offer to Allah a goodly gift, and whatever of good you send on beforehand for yourselves, you will find it with Allah; that is best and greatest in reward; and ask forgiveness of Allah; surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

To him among you who wishes to go forward or remain behind.

Man shall on that day be informed of what he sent before and (what he) put off.

Every soul shall know what it has sent before and held back.
