Surah 36. Ya-Sin, Ayah 12
| إِنَّا نَحْنُ نُحْيِي الْمَوْتَىٰ وَنَكْتُبُ مَا قَدَّمُوا وَآثَارَهُمْ ۚ وَكُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَاهُ فِي إِمَامٍ مُبِينٍ |
| Transliteration | : | 'in(na) -naa nah.nu nuh.ye al- mawtaa wa- naktub maa qaddamo wa- 'aathaar -hum wa- kull shay' ah.s.aynaa -hu fe 'imaam muben |
| Pickthall | : | Lo! We it is Who bring the dead to life. We record that which they send before (them), and their footprints. And all things We have kept in a clear register. |
| Asad | : | Verily, We shall indeed bring the dead back to life; and We shall record whatever [deeds] they have sent ahead, and the traces [of good and evil] which they have left behind: for of all things do We take account in a record clear. |
| Malik | : | Surely We shall resurrect the dead, We are recording all that they are sending ahead and that they are leaving behind. We have recorded everything in an open ledger. |
| Yusuf Ali | : | Verily We shall give life to the dead and We record that which they sent before and that which they leave behind and of all things have We taken account in a clear Book (of evidence). 3954 3955 3956 |
Note - 3954All this is possible, because there is the assurance of a
Hereafter, in which Allah will be all-in-all, and evil
will no longer bestride the world, as the term of its
respite will have expired.

Note - 3955Our deeds, good and bad, go to Allah before us. They will
of course be brought to our account; but our account will
also be swelled by the example we left behind us and the
consequences of our deeds, that will come into play or
continue to operate after our earthly life has ceased.
Our moral and spiritual responsibility is therefore much
wider than as affects our own person.
|
Note - 3956Cf. ii. 124 and n. 124. All our account will be exactly
preserved as in a book of record.
