 47. To Him (Alone) is referred the knowledge of the Hour.^[1] No fruit comes out of its sheath, nor does a female conceive nor brings forth (young), except by His Knowledge. And on the Day when He will call unto them (polytheists) (saying): "Where are My (so-called) partners (whom you did invent)?" They will say: "We inform You that none of us bears witness to it (that they are Your partners)!"

Then, We verily, will show to the disbelievers what they have done, and We shall make them taste a severe torment.
