Surah Maryam — Ayah 40 (19:40)

Mary · Makkah · Juz 16 · Mushaf page 308 of 604

إِنَّا نَحۡنُ نَرِثُ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ وَمَنۡ عَلَيۡهَا وَإِلَيۡنَا يُرۡجَعُونَ ٤٠

English translation (Saheeh International)

Indeed, it is We who will inherit the earth and whoever is on it, and to Us they will be returned.

Brief commentary

I am the one who will remain after the creation has perished. I shall inherit the earth and those on it, because they will have perished and I will remain after them, and I own them and do with them as I want. To Me alone they shall return on the Day of Judgment to be reckoned and recompensed.
