˹The time of˺ people’s judgment has drawn near, yet they are heedlessly turning away.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

[The time of] their account has approached for the people, while they are in heedlessness turning away.

— Saheeh International

Whatever new reminder comes to them from their Lord, they only listen to it jokingly,

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

No mention [i.e., revelation] comes to them anew from their Lord except that they listen to it while they are at play

— Saheeh International

with their hearts ˹totally˺ distracted. The evildoers would converse secretly, ˹saying,˺ “Is this ˹one˺ not human like yourselves? Would you fall for ˹this˺ witchcraft, even though you can ˹clearly˺ see?”

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

With their hearts distracted. And those who do wrong conceal their private conversation, [saying], "Is this [Prophet] except a human being like you? So would you approach magic while you are aware [of it]?"

The Prophet responded, “My Lord ˹fully˺ knows every word spoken in the heavens and the earth. For He is the All-Hearing, All-Knowing.”

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

He [the Prophet (ﷺ)] said, "My Lord knows whatever is said throughout the heaven and earth, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing."

— Saheeh International

Yet they say, “This ˹Quran˺ is a set of confused dreams! No, he has fabricated it! No, he must be a poet! So let him bring us a ˹tangible˺ sign like those ˹prophets˺ sent before.”

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

But they say, "[The revelation is but] a mixture of false dreams; rather, he has invented it; rather, he is a poet. So let him bring us a sign just as the previous [messengers] were sent [with miracles]."

— Saheeh International

Not a ˹single˺ society We destroyed before them ever believed ˹after receiving the signs˺. Will these ˹pagans˺ then believe?

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

Not a [single] city which We destroyed believed before them,1 so will they believe?

— Saheeh International

We did not send ˹messengers˺ before you ˹O Prophet˺ except mere men inspired by Us. If you ˹polytheists˺ do not know ˹this already˺, then ask those who have knowledge ˹of the Scriptures˺.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

And We sent not before you, [O Muḥammad], except men to whom We revealed [the message], so ask the people of the message [i.e., former scriptures] if you do not know.

— Saheeh International

We did not give those messengers ˹supernatural˺ bodies that did not need food, nor were they immortal.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

And We did not make them [i.e., the prophets] forms not eating food,1 nor were they immortal [on earth].

— Saheeh International

Then We fulfilled Our promise to them, saving them along with whoever We willed and destroying the transgressors.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

Then1 We fulfilled for them the promise, and We saved them and whom We willed and destroyed the transgressors.

— Saheeh International

We have surely revealed to you a Book, in which there is glory for you. Will you not then understand?

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

We have certainly sent down to you a Book [i.e., the Qur’ān] in which is your mention.1 Then will you not reason?

— Saheeh International

˹Imagine˺ how many societies of wrongdoers We have destroyed, raising up other people after them!

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

And how many a city which was unjust1 have We shattered and produced after it another people.
