P:  Lo!  Allah wrongeth not mankind in aught; but mankind wrong themselves.

S:  Surely Allah does not do any injustice to men, but men are unjust to themselves.

010.045 Y:  One day He will gather them together:  (It will be) as if they had tarried but an hour of a day:  they will recognise each other:  assuredly those will be lost who denied the meeting with Allah and refused to receive true guidance.

P:  And on the day when He shall gather them together, (when it will seem) as though they had tarried but an hour of the day, recognising one another, those will verily have perished who denied the meeting with Allah and were not guided.

S:  And on the day when He will gather them as though they had not stayed but an hour of the day, they will know each other.  They will perish indeed who called the meeting with Allah to be a lie, and they are not followers of the right direction.

010.046 Y:  Whether We show thee (realised in thy life-time) some part of what We promise them,- or We take thy soul (to Our Mercy) (Before that),- in any case, to Us is their return:  ultimately Allah is witness, to all that they do.

P:  Whether We let thee (O Muhammad) behold something of that which We promise them or (whether We) cause thee to die, still unto Us is their return, and Allah, moreover, is Witness over what they do.

S:  And if We show you something of what We threaten them with, or cause you to die, yet to Us is their return, and Allah is the bearer of witness to what they do.

010.047 Y:  To every people (was sent) a messenger:  when their messenger comes (before them), the matter will be judged between them with justice, and they will not be wronged.

P:  And for every nation there is a messenger.  And when their messenger cometh (on the Day of Judgment) it will be judged between them fairly, and they will not be wronged.

S:  And every nation had a messenger; so when their messenger came, the matter was decided between them with justice and they shall not be dealt with unjustly.

010.048 Y:  They say:  “When will this promise come to pass,- if ye speak the truth?”

P:  And they say:  When will this promise be fulfilled, if ye are truthful?

S:  And they say:  When will this threat come about, if you are truthful?

010.049 Y:  Say:  “I have no power over any harm or profit to myself except as Allah willeth.  To every people is a term appointed:  when their term is reached, not an hour can they cause delay, nor (an hour) can they advance (it in anticipation).”

P:  Say:  I have no power to hurt or benefit myself, save that which Allah willeth.  For every nation there is an appointed time.  When their time cometh, then they cannot put it off an hour, nor hasten (it).

S:  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).
