Quran 7:187
يَسْـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلسَّاعَةِ أَيَّانَ مُرْسَىٰهَا ۖ قُلْ إِنَّمَا عِلْمُهَا عِندَ رَبِّى ۖ لَا يُجَلِّيهَا لِوَقْتِهَآ إِلَّا هُوَ ۚ ثَقُلَتْ فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۚ لَا تَأْتِيكُمْ إِلَّا بَغْتَةً ۗ يَسْـَٔلُونَكَ كَأَنَّكَ حَفِىٌّ عَنْهَا ۖ قُلْ إِنَّمَا عِلْمُهَا عِندَ ٱللَّهِ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ
| EnglishTalal Itani | They ask you about the Hour, “When will it come?” Say, “Knowledge of it rests with my Lord. None can reveal its coming except He. It weighs heavily on the heavens and the earth. It will not come upon you except suddenly.” They ask you as if you are responsible for it. Say, “Knowledge of it rests with Allah,” but most people do not know. |

| EnglishPickthall, 1930 | They ask thee of the (destined) Hour, when will it come to port. Say: Knowledge thereof is with my Lord only. He alone will manifest it at its proper time. It is heavy in the heavens and the earth. It cometh not to you save unawares. They question thee as if thou couldst be well informed thereof. Say: Knowledge thereof is with Allah only, but most of mankind know not. |
| TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935 | Ne zaman demir atacak? Diye sana saatten soruyorlar, de ki: onun ılmi; yalnız rabbımın nezdindedir, onu, vaktı vaktına tecelli ettirecek ancak odur, o, öyle ağır bir mes'ele ki bütün Semavat-ü Arzda tahammül edecek yok, o size ancak bağteten gelecek, sanki sen ondan tefahhusle haberdar imişsin gibi soruyorlar, de ki: onun ılmi, ancak Allahın nezdindedir velâkin insanların ekserîsi bilmezler |
| FrenchKazimirski, 1840 | Ils te demanderont à quand est fixée l’arrivée de l’Heure. Dis-leur : La connaissance en est réservée à Dieu seul. Personne ne saurait en révéler le terme, excepté lui. Elle pèse aux cieux comme à la terre, et elle n’arrivera qu’inopinément. Ils te le demanderont comme si tu en avais la connaissance. Dis-leur : La connaissance en est chez Dieu ; mais la plupart des hommes ignorent cette vérité. |
| DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French | Zij zullen u ondervragen nopens het laatste uur; op welk tijdstip de komst daarvan is bepaald? Antwoord: Waarlijk, de wetenschap daarvan behoort mijn Heer; niemand zal den bepaalden tijd daarvan verklaren, behalve hij. De verwachting daarvan is smartelijk in den hemel en op aarde; hij zal niet dan onverwachts tot u komen. Zij zullen u ondervragen, als waart gij daarmede goed bekend. Antwoord: Waarlijk, de kennis daarvan, behoort alleen aan God, maar het grootste deel der menschen weet het niet. |
| ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French | Ti domanderanno a qual’epoca è fissato l’arrivo dell’ora. Di’ loro: La conoscienza ne è riservata a Dio solo. Nessuno può rivelare il suo termine fuori che lui. Essa è un mistero in Cielo, ed in terra, ed arriverà all’improviso. Ti domanderanno questa cosa come se tu la sapessi. Di’ loro: Dio la sa; ma la maggior parte degli uomini ignora questa verità. |
