Question:
He says: How do we reconcile these two verses, in His saying (Glorified and Exalted is He):[Al-Mursalat 77:35] and their saying: [Ya-Sin 36:52]
Answer:
Yes. He asks how we reconcile these two verses: that Allah said of them, "This is a day when they will not speak," and [the verse] "We have completed [the measure of] their deeds, and they will not be permitted to make excuses." "They will not speak" means they will not speak in excuse, nor retract from what they are upon, nor repent for what has passed. As for their admitting their sins, yes, they admit their sins. But their admission will not benefit them in that situation. Yes.
