36 جَزَاءً مِّن رَّبِّكَ عَطَاءً حِسَابًا Jazaan min rabbika AAataan hisaban a reward from your Lord, a fitting gif 37 رَّبِّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا الرَّحْمَٰنِ لَا يَمْلِكُونَ مِنْهُ خِطَابًا Rabbi alssamawati waal-ardi wama baynahuma alrrahmani la yamlikoona minhu khitaban from the Lord of the heavens and earth and everything between, the Lord of Mercy. They will have no authority from Him to speak 38 يَوْمَ يَقُومُ الرُّوحُ وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ صَفًّا لَّا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ إِلَّا مَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ الرَّحْمَٰنُ وَقَالَ صَوَابًا Yawma yaqoomu alrroohu waalmala-ikatu saffan la yatakallamoona illa man athina lahu alrrahmanu waqala sawaban On the Day when the Spirit and the angels stand in rows, they will not speak except for those to whom the Lord of Mercy gives permission, who will say only what is right 39 ذَٰلِكَ الْيَوْمُ الْحَقُّ فَمَن شَاءَ اتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِ مَآبًا Thalika alyawmu alhaqqu faman shaa ittakhatha ila rabbihi maaban That is the Day of Truth. So whoever wishes to do so should take the path that leads to his Lord
