Chapter 17, Page 283, Juz 15

11. And humans ˹swiftly˺ pray for evil as they pray for good. For humankind is ever hasty. 12. We made the day and night as two signs. So We made the sign of the night devoid of light, and We made the sign of the day ˹perfectly˺ bright, so that you may seek the bounty of your Lord and know the number of years and calculation ˹of time˺. And We have explained everything in detail. 13. We have bound every human’s destiny to their neck. And on the Day of Judgment We will bring forth to each ˹person˺ a record which they will find laid open. 14. ˹And it will be said,˺ “Read your record. You ˹alone˺ are sufficient this Day to take account of yourself.”

- Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran
