« ለራሴ ጉዳትንም ጥቅምንም አላህ ከሻው በስተቀር አልችልም ፡ ፡ ለሕዝቦች ሁሉ የተወሰነ ጊዜ አልላቸው ፡ ፡ ጊዜያቸው በመጣ ወቅት አንዲትን ሰዓት አይቆዩም ፤ አይቀደሙምም » በላቸው ፡ ፡
Say : " I have no power over any harm or profit to myself except as Allah willeth . To every people is a term appointed : when their term is reached , not an hour can they cause delay , nor ( an hour ) can they advance ( it in anticipation ) . "
