38 Preface هٰذا يَومُ الفَصلِ ۖ جَمَعناكُم وَالأَوَّلينَYusuf AliThat will be a Day of Sorting out! We shall gather you together and those before (you)!1We may suppose this as spoken primarily to the Quraish who were plotting against the Prophet. You may use all your wisdom and that of your ancestors, but you will not be able to defeat God or His Plan. See next verse.
