The word(s) "respite" appears 31 time(s) in 31 verse(s) in Quran in Mohsin Khan translation.

(11) Consider not that Allah is unaware of that which the Zalimun (polytheists, wrong-doers) do, but He gives them respite up to a Day when the eyes will stare in horror.

(12) And warn (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه و سلم) mankind of the Day when the torment will come unto them; then the wrong-doers will say: "Our Lord! respite us for a little while, we will answer Your Call and follow the Messengers!" (It will be said): "Had you not sworn aforetime that you would not leave (the world for the Hereafter).

(13) We send not the angels down except with the truth (i.e. for torment), and in that case, they (the disbelievers) would have no respite!

(14) [Iblis (Satan)] said: "O my Lord! Give me then respite till the Day they (the dead) will be resurrected."

(15) And when those who did wrong (the disbelievers) will see the torment, then it will not be lightened unto them, nor will they be given respite.

(16) [Iblis (Satan)] said: "See this one whom You have honoured above me, if You give me respite (keep me alive) to the Day of Resurrection, I will surely seize and mislead his offspring (by sending them astray) all but a few!"

(17) Nay, it (the Fire or the Day of Resurrection) will come upon them all of a sudden and will perplex them, and they will have no power to avert it nor will they get respite.

(18) And the dwellers of Madyan (Midian); and belied was Musa (Moses). But I granted respite to the disbelievers for a while, then I seized them, and how (terrible) was My punishment (against their wrong-doing)!

(19) And many a township did I give respite while it was given to wrong-doing. Then (in the end) I seized it (with punishment). And to Me is the (final) return (of all).

(20) Then they will say: "Can we be respited?"
