اَوَاٰبَآؤُنَا الۡاَوَّلُوۡنَ ﴿56:48﴾
قُلۡ اِنَّ الۡاَوَّلِيۡنَ وَالۡاٰخِرِيۡنَۙ ﴿56:49﴾
لَمَجۡمُوۡعُوۡنَ ۙ اِلٰى مِيۡقَاتِ يَوۡمٍ مَّعۡلُوۡمٍ

(56:47) They used to say: “What! Once we are dead and are reduced to dust
and bones, shall we still be raised to a new life from the dead? (56:48) (We) and our fore-fathers of yore?” (56:49) Tell them, (O Prophet): “The earlier ones and the later ones (56:50) shall all be brought together on an appointed Day.
