[35] That is, just as the period of development of a fetus in the mother's womb is fixed with Allah, although there can be some increase or decrease in it, yet the duration for each fetus is separately determined by Allah. In the same way, the time of death for each person is fixed, as is the time for the establishment of the Day of Judgment. Although no one except Allah can know these, it is certain that when the appointed time is completed, by Allah's command it immediately comes to pass, and there can be neither advancement nor delay by even a moment. The same is true for the Day of Judgment: when Allah commands, it will occur even before the blink of an eye.
