قَالَ قَائِلٌ مِنْهُمْ إِنِّي كَانَ لِي قَرِينٌ
51. A speaker among them will say, "Indeed, I had a companion [on earth]
يَقُولُ أَإِنَّكَ لَمِنَ الْمُصَدِّقِينَ
52. Who would say, 'Are you indeed of those who believe
أَإِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَامًا أَإِنَّا لَمَدِينُونَ
53. That when we have died and become dust and bones, we will indeed be recompensed?'"
قَالَ هَلْ أَنْتُمْ مُطَّلِعُونَ
54. He will say, "Would you [care to] look?"
فَاطَّلَعَ فَرَآهُ فِي سَوَاءِ الْجَحِيمِ
55. And he will look and see him in the midst of the Hellfire.
قَالَ تَاللَّهِ إِنْ كِدْتَ لَتُرْدِينِ
56. He will say, "By Allah, you almost ruined me.
وَلَوْلَا نِعْمَةُ رَبِّي لَكُنْتُ مِنَ الْمُحْضَرِينَ
57. If not for the favor of my Lord, I would have been of those brought in [to Hell].
أَفَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَيِّتِينَ
58. Then, are we not to die
إِلَّا مَوْتَتَنَا الْأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُعَذَّبِينَ
59. Except for our first death, and we will not be punished?"
إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِيمُ
60. Indeed, this is the great attainment.
