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
According to Elmalılı, they have no faith that they will come before Allah on the Day of Resurrection; yet they are tormented by doubt.
Reflect
Believe with certainty that you will meet your Lord.
