English Translation of Al-Quran

[7]. Surah Al-Araaf [The Heights]
Ayat 186. Whomsoever ALLAH sends astray, none can guide him; and He lets them wander blindly in their transgressions.
Ayat 187. They ask you about the Hour (Day of Resurrection): "When will be its appointed time?" Say: "The knowledge thereof is with my Lord (Alone). None can reveal its time but He. Heavy is its burden through the heavens and the earth. It shall not come upon you except all of a sudden." They ask you as if you have a good knowledge of it. Say: "The knowledge thereof is with ALLAH (Alone) but most of mankind know not."

Hazrat Abu Hurairah reported: Messenger of ALLAH recited, "That Day it (the earth) will reveal its news (about all that happened over it of good or evil).'' (99:4). Then he inquired, "Do you know what its news are?'' He was told: "ALLAH and His Messenger know better". He said, "Its news is that it shall bear witness against every man and woman what they did on its back. It will say: `You did this and this on such and such day.' Those will be its news.''
[At-Tirmidhi]
