وليست التوبة للذين يعملون السيئات حتى اذا حضر احدهم الموت قال اني تبت الان ولا الذين يموتون وهم كفار اولئك اعتدنا لهم عذابا اليما

Of no effect is the repentance Of those who continue To do evil, until Death Faces one of them, and he says, "Now have I repented indeed;" Nor of those who die Rejecting Faith: for them Have we prepared A punishment most grievous.
