وَقِفوهُم ۖ إِنَّهُم مَسئولونَ
But stop them, for they are to be questioned.”
ما لَكُم لا تَناصَرونَ
What’s the matter with you that you don’t help each other?
بَل هُمُ اليَومَ مُستَسلِمونَ
But, on this day, they will be in submission.
وَأَقبَلَ بَعضُهُم عَلىٰ بَعضٍ يَتَساءَلونَ
And they will turn on one another, blaming each other.
قالوا إِنَّكُم كُنتُم تَأتونَنا عَنِ اليَمينِ
Some will say, “You used to come to us from the right.”
قالوا بَل لَم تَكونوا مُؤمِنينَ
The others will respond, “No, you yourselves were not believers.
وَما كانَ لَنا عَلَيكُم مِن سُلطانٍ ۖ بَل كُنتُم قَومًا طاغينَ
We had no authority over you; you were a transgressing people.
فَحَقَّ عَلَينا قَولُ رَبِّنا ۖ إِنّا لَذائِقونَ
So now the word of our Lord has come true against us. We are tasting it.
فَأَغوَيناكُم إِنّا كُنّا غاوينَ
We seduced you; we were seducers.”
فَإِنَّهُم يَومَئِذٍ فِي العَذابِ مُشتَرِكونَ
On that Day, they will share in the punishment.
إِنّا كَذٰلِكَ نَفعَلُ بِالمُجرِمينَ
This is how We deal with sinners.
