Sura 45
Aya 24
24
وَقالوا ما هِيَ إِلّا حَياتُنَا الدُّنيا نَموتُ وَنَحيا وَما يُهلِكُنا إِلَّا الدَّهرُ ۚ وَما لَهُم بِذٰلِكَ مِن عِلمٍ ۖ إِن هُم إِلّا يَظُنّونَ

Muhammad Asad

And yet they say: "There is nothing beyond our life in this world. We die as we come to life,1 and nothing but time destroys us." But of this they have no knowledge whatever: they do nothing but guess.
  • I.e., by accident, or as an outcome of blind forces of nature.
