The Angels
IN THE NAME OF GOD, THE MOST GRACIOUS, THE DISPENSER OF GRACE
[35:45]
Now if God were to take men [at once] to task for whatever [wrong] they commit [on earth], He would not leave a single living creature upon its surface. However, He grants them respite for a term set [by Him]: but when their term comes to an end – then, verily, [they come to know that] God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His servants.


* v.45 : Or: “known [to Him alone]” – i.e., the end of their lives on earth.
