Al-Mursalat 77:35–40
A Day they will not speak
هَٰذَا يَوْمُ لَا يَنطِقُونَ ٣٥ وَلَا يُؤْذَنُ لَهُمْ فَيَعْتَذِرُونَ ٣٦ وَيْلٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ٣٧ هَٰذَا يَوْمُ ٱلْفَصْلِ ۖ جَمَعْنَٰكُمْ وَٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ٣٨ فَإِن كَانَ لَكُمْ كَيْدٌۭ فَكِيدُونِ ٣٩ وَيْلٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ٤٠
The meaning, simply
This is a Day the deniers will not speak words that help them, nor be allowed to make excuses. Woe that Day to the deniers. This is the Day of Decision; Allah has gathered you with those of old. If you have a plan, then try it. Woe that Day to the deniers.

Think with me
Today you can still say sorry. Is there someone you need to apologise to?
