Ayah: 53

هَلۡ يَنظُرُونَ إِلَّا تَأۡوِيلَهُۥۚ يَوۡمَ يَأۡتِي تَأۡوِيلُهُۥ يَقُولُ ٱلَّذِينَ نَسُوهُ مِن قَبۡلُ قَدۡ جَآءَتۡ رُسُلُ رَبِّنَا بِٱلۡحَقِّ فَهَل لَّنَا مِن شُفَعَآءَ فَيَشۡفَعُواْ لَنَآ أَوۡ نُرَدُّ فَنَعۡمَلَ غَيۡرَ ٱلَّذِي كُنَّا نَعۡمَلُۚ قَدۡ خَسِرُوٓاْ أَنفُسَهُمۡ وَضَلَّ عَنۡهُم مَّا كَانُواْ يَفۡتَرُونَ

53. Do they wait for anything but its interpretation14? On the Day when its interpretation comes, those who neglected it before will say: "Indeed, the messengers of our Lord 'Allāh' brought the Truth. Are there for us then any intercessors so that they might intercede on our behalf? Or could we be sent back (to our worldly life) so that we might do 'deeds' other than those which we used to do?" Indeed they have lost their own selves and that which they invented15 has gone away from them.

14. The coming of Resurrection and Punishment.
15. Invoking and worshipping others besides Allâh.
