" ### Shabbir Ahmed Whispering among themselves, "You have lived but ten days. " ### Sam Gerrans — The Qur'an: A Complete Revelation Whispering among themselves: “You tarried only ten.” ### The Monotheist Group — The Quran: A Monotheist Translation They whisper among themselves: "You have only been away for a period of ten." ### Rashad Khalifa — The Final Testament Whispering among themselves, they will say, "You have stayed (in the first life) no more than ten days!" ### Mohamed Ahmed - Samira Whispering to one another: "You have tarried but ten days. " ### Sahih International — (Umm Muhammad, Mary Kennedy, Amatullah Bantley) They will murmur among themselves, "You remained not but ten [days in the world]. " ### Muhammad Asad whispering unto one another, "You have spent but ten [days on earth] ### Marmaduke Pickthall Murmuring among themselves: Ye have tarried but ten (days). ### Abul A'la Maududi — Tafhim commentary They shall whisper among themselves: "You stayed on the earth barely ten days."[1] _Footnotes_ - [1] The original text may also be interpreted to mean: After your death, you may have passed hardly ten days till now. As regards to the interpretation adopted in the translation, it is supported by (Surah Ash-Shuara, Ayats 112-113): When Allah will ask them, for how many years did you stay on the earth? They will say: We stayed there for a day or part of a day. You may ask those who have kept the record. The second interpretation is supported by (Surah Ar-Room, Ayats 55-56): And on the day when Resurrection will take place, the criminals will declare under oaths: We have not remained in the state of death for more than an hour. And likewise they were deluded on the earth. On the other hand, those who have been given knowledge and faith will say: According to the Book of Allah, you have remained in this state up to the Day of Resurrection, and this is the very Day of Resurrection, but you did not know of it. Both the interpretations are supported by other verses of the Quran. It is clear from these that they will consider both the life on the earth and the life in the interval between death and Resurrection to be very short. They will consider the earthly life to be very short because, against all their expectations, they will have to face the eternal life in the Hereafter which they denied in their earthly life. As they had made no preparation for this life, they will regret that they had ruined their eternal life for the sake of a few transitory pleasures of the short life they had been given on the earth. As regards to the duration of the interval between death and Resurrection, they will consider it to be very short, for they will imagine that they had been suddenly awakened by the Trumpet from their last sleep or unconsciousness in their earthly life. Thus, they will not at first realize that the Trumpet was the signal for the Day of Resurrection because they had no expectation whatever that the Day of Resurrection would ever come. As a matter of fact, they used to make fun of this Day as a nonsensical thing. ### Abdel Khalek Himmat — Al- Muntakhab They whisper to each other guessing their duration in life below and some think it was so short that it could not have been more than ten days. ### Bijan Moeinian They will whisper among themselves asking: "How long ago was it?
