Sura 66
Aya 7
7
يا أَيُّهَا الَّذينَ كَفَروا لا تَعتَذِرُوا اليَومَ ۖ إِنَّما تُجزَونَ ما كُنتُم تَعمَلونَ

Muhammad Asad

[Hence,] O you who are bent on denying the truth, make no [empty] excuses today:1 [in the life to come] you shall be but recompensed for what you were doing [in this world].
  • I.e., "do not try to rationalize your deliberate denial of the truth" - the element of conscious intent being immplied in the past-tense phrase alladhina kafaru (see note 6 on 2:6).
