In the Quran

يَوْمَ يَأْتِ لَا تَكَلَّمُ نَفْسٌ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِۦ ۚ فَمِنْهُمْ شَقِىٌّۭ وَسَعِيدٌۭ

جس روز وہ آجائے گا تو کوئی متنفس خدا کے حکم کے بغیر بول بھی نہیں سکے گا۔ پھر ان میں سے کچھ بدبخت ہوں گے اور کچھ نیک بخت

On the day when it cometh no soul will speak except by His permission; some among them will be wretched, (others) glad.
