The Holy Quran 33:8 — Surah Al-Ahzab

Arabic text

لِّيَسْـَٔلَ ٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ عَن صِدْقِهِمْ ۚ وَأَعَدَّ لِلْكَـٰفِرِينَ عَذَابًا أَلِيمًا

Translation

...So that (on the Day of Qiyaamah) He may ask the truthful ones the Ambiyaa عليهم الصلاة والسلام about their truthfulness (about whether they fulfilled their pledges. Their confirmation that they did fulfil the pledge will be evidence against the Kuffaar). Allaah has prepared a painful doom for the Kaafiroon.

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The proof against the deniers: that is, in accordance with the pledge and covenant, [Allah] conveys His commands to the creation through the tongues of these prophets and completes the proof, and then He will question each one, so that the steadfastness of the truthful in the truth may become manifest and the deniers may be punished for rejecting the truth.
