Last updated: Apr 9, 2026

highlighted words differ between verses

74:19 · Al-Muddaththir · Juz 29

فَقُتِلَ كَيْفَ قَدَّرَ

May he be condemned! How evil was what he determined!

80:17 · Abasa · Juz 30

قُتِلَ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ مَآ أَكْفَرَهُۥ

Condemned are ˹disbelieving˺ humans! How ungrateful they are ˹to Allah˺!

80:17 'qutila al-insan ma akfarah' (cursed is man, how ungrateful he is) and 74:19 'qutila kayfa qaddar' (cursed is how he calculated) both use the exclamatory 'qutila' curse formula with different objects — man's ingratitude vs man's planning.
