سورة المؤمنون، الآية ١١٥
أَفَحَسِبْتُمْ أَنَّمَا خَلَقْنَٰكُمْ عَبَثًا وَأَنَّكُمْ إِلَيْنَا لَا تُرْجَعُونَ ١١٥
afaḥasib'tum annamā khalaqnākum ʿabathan wa-annakum ilaynā lā tur'jaʿūna
Then did you think that We created you uselessly and that to Us you would not be returned?"
Verse 115 of Surah Al-Mu’minun (23:115), a Meccan surah, is in juz 18, on page 349 of the mushaf. Read it in Arabic with its transliteration, translations and tafsir, and listen to it recited by 73 reciters.
79 recitations by 73 reciters: pick one and it plays in the player.
So do you think, O people, that I created you as a plaything without any wisdom, so that there will be no reward or punishment as with animals, and that you will not return to Me on the Day of Judgment for the reckoning and recompense?”
Did you think that We created you with no purpose and that you would not be brought back to Us?”
"Did you think that We had created you in play (without any purpose), and that you would not be brought back to Us?"
Deemed ye then that We had created you for naught, and that ye would not be returned unto Us?
"Did ye then think that We had created you in jest, and that ye would not be brought back to Us (for account)?"
What! did you then think that We had created you in vain and that you shall not be returned to Us?
Did you then reckon that We created you only for sport and that you would not be returned to Us?"
