68. From which you are turning away [67].

[67] That is, the news of the Day of Judgment is not an ordinary piece of news, which you mock and repeatedly ask about: "When will it come? Why doesn't it come? Why aren't we given our account right now?" If you understand its reality and bring before your eyes the terrifying scenes of that day, it is such a great matter that it can change the course of your way of life.
