The Holy Quran 50:19 — Surah Qaf

Arabic text

وَجَآءَتْ سَكْرَةُ ٱلْمَوْتِ بِٱلْحَقِّ ۖ ذَٰلِكَ مَا كُنتَ مِنْهُ تَحِيدُ

Translation

The pangs (agony) of death will bring the truth (of Imaan to every person). (It will then be said to the dying person,) "This (death) is what you used to avoid." (However, now you have no option.)

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

Sakrat al-mawt (the stupor of death): that is, here his record has been compiled, and there the hour of death has arrived, and the dying person begins to sink and struggle in the swoons of the death throes and the agonies of the soul's departure.
