Translation of Surah Al-Hajj, ayah 55 (22:55)

وَلَا يَزَالُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ فِي مِرۡيَةٖ مِّنۡهُ حَتَّىٰ تَأۡتِيَهُمُ ٱلسَّاعَةُ بَغۡتَةً أَوۡ يَأۡتِيَهُمۡ عَذَابُ يَوۡمٍ عَقِيمٍ ٥٥
Yet the disbelievers will persist in doubt about this ˹revelation˺ until the Hour takes them by surprise, or the torment of a terminating1 Day comes to them.

The Day ˹of Judgment˺ is described as ’aqîm (lit., barren) because it will terminate all forms of life on earth and no new day will be born.
