The Holy Quran 16:77 — Surah An-Nahl

Arabic text

وَلِلَّهِ غَيْبُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۚ وَمَآ أَمْرُ ٱلسَّاعَةِ إِلَّا كَلَمْحِ ٱلْبَصَرِ أَوْ هُوَ أَقْرَبُ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

Translation

To Allaah belongs the unseen affairs of the heavens and the earth (Only He has knowledge of everything unseen). The affair of Qiyaamah (together with resurrecting all of creation is regarded as an awesome event, yet it is so easy for Allaah that it) is just like the blink of an eye or even quicker (because all Allaah does to bring something to being is to say, "Be!". In fact, Allaah does not even have to say this). (This is nothing strange because) Verily Allaah has power over all things.

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

ولله سبحانه وتعالى عِلْمُ ما غاب في السموات والأرض، وما شأن القيامة في سرعة مجيئها إلا كنظرة سريعة بالبصر، بل هو أسرع من ذلك. إن الله على كل شيء قدير.
