Kdyby Bůh trestal lidi za nespravedlnost jejich, nezůstal by na zemi tvor živý, avšak On dává jim odklad do lhůty stanovené; a až vyprší lhůta jejich, nezadrží ji ni o hodinu ani ji neuspíší.
And if Allah were to seize mankind for their wrong-doing, He would not leave on it (the earth) a single moving (living) creature, but He postpones them for an appointed term and when their term comes, neither can they delay nor can they advance it an hour (or a moment).
