Transliteration

Innas Saa'ata aatiyatun akaadu ukhfeehaa litujzaa kullu nafsim bimaa tas'aa

Translation

Indeed, the Hour is coming - I almost conceal it - so that every soul may be recompensed according to that for which it strives.

Verse interpretation (Tafsir)

The Hour is most definitely coming and it will certainly occur. I almost keep it hidden so that no creation knows its time, but they are aware of its signs by the information given to them by the Prophet sent to them, so that each soul is rewarded for what it did, whether good or evil.
