Sura 39, Ukurasa 464, Juzuu 24

53. Say, ˹O Prophet, that Allah says,˺ “O My servants who have exceeded the limits against their souls! Do not lose hope in Allah’s mercy, for Allah certainly forgives all sins. He is indeed the All-Forgiving, Most Merciful. 54. Turn to your Lord ˹in repentance˺, and ˹fully˺ submit to Him before the punishment reaches you, ˹for˺ then you will not be helped. 55. Follow ˹the Quran,˺ the best of what has been revealed to you from your Lord, before the punishment takes you by surprise while you are unaware, 56. so that no ˹sinful˺ soul will say ˹on Judgment Day˺, ‘Woe to me for neglecting ˹my duties towards˺ Allah, while ridiculing ˹the truth˺.’ 57. Or ˹a soul will˺ say, ‘If only Allah had guided me, I would have certainly been one of the righteous.’ 58. Or say, upon seeing the torment, ‘If only I had a second chance, I would have been one of the good-doers.’ 59. Not at all! My revelations had already come to you, but you rejected them, acted arrogantly, and were one of the disbelievers.” 60. On the Day of Judgment you will see those who lied about Allah with their faces gloomy. Is Hell not a ˹fitting˺ home for the arrogant? 61. And Allah will deliver those who were mindful ˹of Him˺ to their place of ˹ultimate˺ triumph. No evil will touch them, nor will they grieve. 62. Allah is the Creator of all things, and He is the Maintainer of everything. 63. To Him belong the keys ˹of the treasuries˺ of the heavens and the earth. As for those who rejected the signs of Allah, it is they who will be the ˹true˺ losers.
