Surah 45. Al-Jathiya, Ayah 32
وَإِذَا قِيلَ إِنَّ وَعْدَ ٱللَّهِ حَقٌّ وَٱلسَّاعَةُ لَا رَيْبَ فِيهَا قُلْتُم مَّا نَدْرِى مَا ٱلسَّاعَةُ إِن نَّظُنُّ إِلَّا ظَنًّا وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُسْتَيْقِنِينَ

- Mohammad Asad
When it was said, "the promise of Allah is true and the Hour of Judgement is sure to come. You used to say, `We don't know what the Hour of Judgement is: we think it is just a conjecture, we are not convinced.'"
- Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
And whenever it was said 'to you', 'Surely Allah's promise 'of judgment' is true and there is no doubt about the Hour,' you said 'mockingly', 'We do not know what the Hour is! We think it is no more than speculation, and we are not convinced 'that it will ever come'.''
- Mustafa Khattab
And when it was said: Lo! Allah's promise is the truth, and there is no doubt of the Hour's coming, ye said: We know not what the Hour is. We deem it naught but a conjecture, and we are by no means convinced.
- Marmaduke Pickthall
"And when it was said that the promise of Allah was true and that the Hour there was no doubt about its (coming) ye used to say `We know not what is the Hour: we only think it is an idea and we have no firm assurance.'" 4769
- Abdullah Yusuf Ali
