M.Pickthall
187. They ask thee of the (destined) Hour, when will it come to port. Say: Knowledge
thereof is with my Lord only. He alone will manifest it at its proper time. It is
heavy in the heavens and the earth. It cometh not to you save unawares. They question
thee as if thou couldst be well informed thereof. Say: Knowledge thereof is with Allah
only, but most of mankind know not.
Yusuf Ali
187. They ask thee about the (final) hour when will be its appointed time? Say: "The
knowledge thereof is with my Lord (alone): none but He can reveal as to when it will
occur. Heavy were its burden through the heavens and the earth. Only all of a sudden
will it come to you. They ask thee as if thou wert eager in search thereof: Say: "The
knowledge thereof is with Allah (alone) but most men know not."
M.Pickthall
188. Say: For myself I have no power to benefit, nor power to hurt, save that which
Allah willeth. Had I knowledge of the Unseen, I should have abundance of wealth, and
adversity would not touch me. I am but a warner, and a bearer of good tidings unto folk
who believe.
Yusuf Ali
188. Say: "I have no power over any good or harm to myself except as Allah willeth.
If I had knowledge of the unseen I should have multiplied all good and no evil should
have touched me I am but a warner and a bringer of glad tidings to those who have faith."
