The True Day

ذَٰلِكَ ٱلۡيَوۡمُ ٱلۡحَقُّۖ فَمَن شَآءَ ٱتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ مَـَٔابًا ۝٣٩

That is the True Day. So whoso will should seek recourse unto his Lord.

Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall

Meaning

That is the True Day. So whoever wills may take a way to his Lord.

Insight

According to Elmalılı, the day of rising and separation that was foretold is a true day; whoever knows it should take a path that returns to his Lord.

Reflect

Choose a path today that leads to your Lord.
