[For such is the state of the disbelievers] until, when death comes to one of them, he says, "My Lord, send me back
لَعَلِّىٓ That I may laʿallī do aʿmalu righteous (deeds) ṣāliḥan in what fīmā I left behind taraktu No kallā Indeed, it innahā (is) a word kalimatun he huwa speaks it qāiluhā and before them wamin and before them warāihim (is) a barrier barzakhun till ilā (the) Day yawmi they are resurrected yub'ʿathūna
That I might do righteousness in that which I left behind." No! It is only a word he is saying; and behind them is a barrier until the Day they are resurrected.
