Al-Waqi’ah 56:67
The Inevitable · Meccan · Juz 27 · Page 536
Deprived
بَلۡ نَحۡنُ مَحۡرُومُونَ ٦٧
Nay, but we are deprived.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
“Rather, we are deprived.”
Insight
According to Elmalılı, this means: “What we sowed is ruined and we are deprived of food too”; the sayings are like a dialogue of people answering each other.
Reflect
Remember today the true Owner of provision.
