نَحْنُ قَدَّرْنَا بَيْنَكُمُ ٱلْمَوْتَ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَسْبُوقِينَ
Na h nu qaddarn a baynakumu almawta wam a na h nu bimasbooqeen a
We have [indeed] decreed that death shall be [ever-present] among you: but there is nothing to prevent Us
  - Mohammad Asad
It is We Who have ordained death among you and We are not helpless
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
We have ordained death for 'all of' you, and We cannot be prevented
  - Mustafa Khattab
We mete out death among you, and We are not to be outrun,
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
We have decreed Death to be your common lot and We are not to be frustrated 5250
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Just as Allah has created this life that we see, so He has decreed that Death should be the common lot of all of us. Surely, if He can thus give life and death, as we see it, why should we refuse to believe that He can give us other forms when this life is over? The Future Life, though indicated by what we know now, is to be on a wholly different plane.
