Surah Al-A'raf (الأعراف) • The Heights

Quran 7:34

7:34

وَلِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ أَجَلٌ ۖ فَإِذَا جَآءَ أَجَلُهُمْ لَا يَسْتَأْخِرُونَ سَاعَةً ۖ وَلَا يَسْتَقْدِمُونَ

walikulli ummatin ajalun fa-idhā jāa ajaluhum lā yastakhirūna sāʿatan walā yastaqdimūna

There is a time set for every people: they cannot hasten it, nor, when it comes, will they be able to delay it for a single moment.

And every nation has its appointed term; when their term comes, neither can they delay it nor can they advance it an hour (or a moment).
