Surah 7. Al-A'raf, Ayah 53
هَلْ يَنظُرُونَ إِلَّا تَأْوِيلَهُۥ ۚ يَوْمَ يَأْتِى تَأْوِيلُهُۥ يَقُولُ ٱلَّذِينَ نَسُوهُ مِن قَبْلُ قَدْ جَآءَتْ رُسُلُ رَبِّنَا بِٱلْحَقِّ فَهَل لَّنَا مِن شُفَعَآءَ فَيَشْفَعُوا۟ لَنَآ أَوْ نُرَدُّ فَنَعْمَلَ غَيْرَ ٱلَّذِى كُنَّا نَعْمَلُ ۚ قَدْ خَسِرُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ وَضَلَّ عَنْهُم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يَفْتَرُونَ Qur’an Al-A'raf (7:53)Hal yan th uroona ill a taweelahu yawma yatee taweeluhu yaqoolu alla th eena nasoohu min qablu qad j a at rusulu rabbin a bi a l h aqqi fahal lan a min shufaAA a a fayashfaAAoo lan a aw nuraddu fanaAAmala ghayra alla th ee kunn a naAAmalu qad khasiroo anfusahum wa d alla AAanhum m a k a noo yaftaroon a
Are [the unbelievers] but waiting for the final meaning of that [Day of Judgment] to unfold?41 [But] on the Day when its final meaning is unfolded, those who aforetime had been oblivious thereof will say: "Our Sustainer's apostles have indeed told us the truth! Have we, then, any intercessors who could intercede in our behalf? Or could we be brought back [to life] so that we might act otherwise than we were wont to act?"42 Indeed, they will have squandered their own selves, and all their false imagery will have forsaken them.

Mohammad AsadNow are these people waiting for anything other than the Day of Fulfillment (Day of Judgement)? When the Day of Fulfillment will come, those who have disregarded it, will say: "Indeed the Rasools of our Rabb had come with the truth. Are there any intercessors now, who could intercede on our behalf? Or could we be sent back so that we would not do as we have done before." In fact they would have lost their souls and the things they had invented will leave them in the lurch.
- Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam MalikDo they only await the fulfilment 'of its warning'? The Day it will be fulfilled, those who ignored it before will say, 'The messengers of our Lord certainly came with the truth. Are there any intercessors who can plead on our behalf? Or can we be sent back so we may do 'good,' unlike what we used to do?' They will have certainly ruined themselves, and whatever 'gods' they fabricated will fail them.

Mustafa KhattabAwait they aught save the fulfillment thereof? On the day when the fulfillment thereof cometh, those who were before forgetful thereof will say: The messengers of our Lord did bring the Truth! Have we any intercessors, that they may intercede for us? Or can we be returned (to life on earth), that we may act otherwise than we used to act? They have lost their souls, and that which they devised hath failed them.
- Marmaduke Pickthall
Marmaduke PickthallDo they just wait for the final fulfillment of the event? On the day the event is finally fulfilled those who disregarded it before will say: "the apostles of our Lord did indeed bring true (tidings). Have we no intercessors now to intercede on our behalf? Or could we be sent back? Then should we behave differently from our behavior in the past." In fact they will have lost their souls and the things they invented will leave them in the lurch. 1030
