It is Allah Who takes away the souls of people at the hour of their death, and takes away at the time of sleep the souls of those that have not died. Then He retains the souls of those against whom He had decreed death and returns the souls of others till an appointed time. Surely there are Signs in this for a people who reflect.
アッラーは（人間が）死ぬとその魂を召され，また死なない者も，睡眠の間（それを召し），かれが死の宣告をなされた者の魂は，そのままに引き留め，その外のものは定められた時刻に送り返される。本当にこの中には，反省する人びとへの種々の印がある。
