And on the Day when the Hour (Qiyāmah : the Day of Judgement) will take place, the sinners will swear that they did not remain (in the graves) more than one hour. In the similar way they used to be contrary (to truth in their worldly life).

As for those who were given knowledge and belief, they will say, “You remained, according to the destiny written by Allah, up to the Day of Resurrection. So this is the Day of Resurrection, but you had no belief.”

So, on that Day, their apology will not benefit the wrongdoers, nor will they be asked to repent.

Indeed We have given in this Qur’ān all kinds of examples for the benefit of mankind. (Still) if you bring to them a sign, the disbelievers will certainly say, “You are nothing but men of falsehood.”

Thus Allah seals up the hearts of those who do not believe.

So, be patient. Surely Allah’s promise is true, and let not the disbelievers shake your firmness.
