Waqtarabal wa'dul haqqu fa-izaa hiya shaakhisatun absaarul lazeena kafaroo yaawailanaa qad kunna fee ghaflatim min haaza bal kunnaa zaalimeen

21:97. And [when] the true promise has approached; then suddenly the eyes of those who disbelieved will be staring [in horror, while they say], "O woe to us; we had been unmindful of this; rather, we were wrongdoers."

اور (قیامت کا) سچا وعدہ قریب آجائے تو ناگاہ کافروں کی آنکھیں کھلی کی کھلی رہ جائیں (اور کہنے لگیں کہ) ہائے شامت ہم اس (حال) سے غفلت میں رہے بلکہ (اپنے حق میں) ظالم تھے
