parting with this world, 
[75:29]
and the shank is intertwined with the [other] shank, that is, one of his shanks [will be intertwined] with his 
other shank at the moment of death; or [it means] the distress of parting with this world is intertwined with 
the distress of the arrival of the Hereafter;

towards the judgement of its Lord’).

or tumn

) deposited into 
the womb.

their own.
