Translation of Verse 67-82

67. The disbelievers ask, "When we and our fathers are reduced to dust, will we really be brought forth ˹alive˺?

68. We have already been promised this, as well as our forefathers earlier. This is nothing but ancient fables!"

69. Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ "Travel throughout the land and see the fate of the wicked."

70. Do not grieve for them, nor be distressed by their schemes.

71. They ask ˹the believers˺, "When will this threat come to pass, if what you say is true?"

72. Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ "Perhaps some of what you seek to hasten is close at hand."

73. Surely your Lord is ever

74. And surely your Lord knows what their hearts conceal and what they reveal. 786

75. For there is nothing hidden in the heavens or the earth without being ˹written˺ in a perfect Record. 787

76. Indeed, this Quran clarifies for the Children of Israel most of what they differ over.

77. And it is truly a guide and mercy for the believers.

78. Your Lord will certainly judge between them by His justice, for He is the Almighty, All-Knowing.

79. So put your trust in Allah, for you are surely upon the ˹Path of˺ clear truth.

80. You certainly cannot make the dead hear ˹the truth˺. Nor can you make the deaf hear the call when they turn their backs and walk away.

81. Nor can you lead the blind out of their misguidance. You can make none hear ˹the truth˺ except those who believe in Our revelations, ˹fully˺ submitting ˹to Allah˺.

82. And when the decree ˹of the Hour˺ comes to pass against them, We will bring forth for them a beast from the earth, 788 telling them that the people had no sure faith in Our revelations.


Commentary

786. Through their tongues or actions.

787. The Record refers to the Preserved Tablet ( Al-Lawḥ Al-Maḥfûẓ ) in which Allah has written the destiny of His entire creation.

788. The beast is believed to be one of the major signs of the Day of Judgment. No further details are given in reliable resources about this beast.
