Al-Ḥijr 15:92
The verses
فَوَرَبِّكَ لَنَسْـَٔلَنَّهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ ٩٢
Them, by thy Lord, We shall question, every one, — Marmaduke Pickthall
عَمَّا كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ ٩٣
Of what they used to do. — Marmaduke Pickthall
The issue
The text states that all the people will be asked on Yawm al-Qiyāma (“Day of Judgment”) about “what they have done”. This verse contradicts Q 55.39: “On that day neither man nor ginn shall be asked about his crime!”
Arabic text of this item
يقول النص إن جميع الناس سيُسألون يوم القيامة <عَمَّا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ>، وهذا الخبر يتعارض مع آية أخرى تقول بأنه <لَّا يُسْأَلُ عَن ذَنبِهِ إِنسٌ وَلَا جَانٌّ> (الرحمن 55: 39).
