Allah SWT is still waiting for you to announce/ show humble submission Explanation: The verse 57:16 is rendered as: "Has the time not come for those who have believed that their hearts should become humbly submissive at the remembrance of Allah .." قال الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم للصحابة الكرام عند نزول هذه الآية: "ألم يأن للذين آمنوا أن تخشع قلوبهم..." "إن الله استبطئكم بالخشوع" فقال الصحابة الكرام: "خشعنا" وقال ابن عباس رضي الله عنه "إن الله استبطأ المؤمنين" which means they've been too late in showing humble submission I prefer not to use the word 'late' or ' slow' in this case I suggest: "Allah SWT is still waiting for you to announce/ show humble submission" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2016-12-29 13:38:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hope I just gave you a clue Amel, as it is a problematic statement in translation -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2016-12-29 13:51:09 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Or you could say: waiting for your hearts to move/soften and humbly submit |
