Surah Az-Zumar — Ayah 56 (39:56)

English translation (Saheeh International)

Lest a soul should say,¹ "Oh, [how great is] my regret over what I neglected in regard to Allāh and that I was among the mockers."

1. - On the Day of Resurrection.

Brief commentary

Act now to avoid the soul's extreme regret when it will declare on the day of resurrection: Alas my grief over my negligence in my duty to Allah by the disbelief and sins committed, and the mocking of the people of faith and obedience in the world.
