Verse (6:31)

The analysis above refers to the 31st verse of chapter 6 (sūrat l-anʿām):

Sahih International: Those will have lost who deny the meeting with Allah , until when the Hour [of resurrection] comes upon them unexpectedly, they will say, "Oh, [how great is] our regret over what we neglected concerning it," while they bear their burdens on their backs. Unquestionably, evil is that which they bear.
