Without diacritics

هل ينظرون الا تاويله يوم ياتي تاويله يقول الذين نسوه من قبل قد جاءت رسل ربنا بالحق فهل لنا من شفعاء فيشفعوا لنا او نرد فنعمل غير الذي كنا نعمل قد خسروا انفسهم وضل عنهم ما كانوا يفترون

Do they just wait For the final fulfilment Of the event? On the day The event is finally fulfilled, Those who disregarded it Before will say: "The apostles Of our Lord did indeed Bring true (tidings). Have we No intercessors now to intercede On our behalf? Or could we Be sent back? Then should we Behave differently from our Behaviour in the past." In fact they will have lost Their souls, and the things They invented will leave Them in the lurch.
