فَاسْتَفْتِهِمْ أَهُمْ أَشَدُّ خَلْقًا أَمْ مَنْ خَلَقْنَا ۚ إِنَّا خَلَقْنَاهُمْ مِنْ طِينٍ لَازِبٍ
11. Then inquire of them, [O Muhammad], "Are they a stronger [or more difficult] creation or those [others] We have created?" Indeed, We created men from sticky clay.
بَلْ عَجِبْتَ وَيَسْخَرُونَ
12. But you wonder, while they mock,
وَإِذَا ذُكِّرُوا لَا يَذْكُرُونَ
13. And when they are reminded, they remember not.
وَإِذَا رَأَوْا آيَةً يَسْتَسْخِرُونَ
14. And when they see a sign, they ridicule
وَقَالُوا إِنْ هَٰذَا إِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُبِينٌ
15. And say, "This is not but obvious magic.
أَإِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَامًا أَإِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ
16. When we have died and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?
أَوَآبَاؤُنَا الْأَوَّلُونَ
17. And our forefathers [as well]?"
قُلْ نَعَمْ وَأَنْتُمْ دَاخِرُونَ
18. Say, "Yes, and you will be [rendered] contemptible."
فَإِنَّمَا هِيَ زَجْرَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ فَإِذَا هُمْ يَنْظُرُونَ
19. It will be only one shout, and at once they will be observing.
وَقَالُوا يَا وَيْلَنَا هَٰذَا يَوْمُ الدِّينِ
20. They will say, "O woe to us! This is the Day of Recompense."
