حَتَّىٰ إِذَا مَا جَاءُوهَا شَهِدَ عَلَيْهِمْ
سَمْعُهُمْ وَأَبْصَارُهُمْ وَجُلُودُهُم بِمَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ.
وَقَالُوا لِجُلُودِهِمْ لِمَ شَهِدتُّمْ
عَلَيْنَا ۖ قَالُوا أَنطَقَنَا اللَّهُ الَّذِي أَنطَقَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ وَهُوَ خَلَقَكُمْ
أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ.
وَمَا كُنتُمْ تَسْتَتِرُونَ أَن
يَشْهَدَ عَلَيْكُمْ سَمْعُكُمْ وَلَا أَبْصَارُكُمْ وَلَا جُلُودُكُمْ وَلَٰكِن ظَنَنتُمْ
أَنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَعْلَمُ كَثِيرًا مِّمَّا تَعْمَلُونَ.
وَذَٰلِكُمْ ظَنُّكُمُ الَّذِي
ظَنَنتُم بِرَبِّكُمْ أَرْدَاكُمْ فَأَصْبَحْتُم مِّنَ الْخَاسِرِينَ.
20. Till, when they reach it (Hell-fire), their hearing (ears)
and their eyes, and their skins will testify against them as to what they used
to do.
21. And they will say to their skins, “Why do you testify
against us?” They will say: “Allāh has caused us to
speak as He causes all things to speak, and He created you the first time, and
to Him you are made to return.”
22. And you
have not been hiding yourselves (in the world), lest you ears, your eyes, and
your skins should testify against you; but you thought that Allāh knew not much
of what you were doing.
23. And that
thought of yours which you thought about your Lord, has brought you to
destruction; and you have become (this Day) of those utterly lost!
