Doubt About the Meeting

أَلَآ إِنَّهُمۡ فِي مِرۡيَةࣲ مِّن لِّقَآءِ رَبِّهِمۡۗ أَلَآ إِنَّهُۥ بِكُلِّ شَيۡءࣲ مُّحِيطُۢ ۝٥٤

How! Are they still in doubt about the meeting with their Lord? Lo! Is not He surrounding all things.

Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall

Meaning

They are in doubt about the meeting with their Lord; and He encompasses all things.

Insight
