وَلَا يَدْرِي مَتَى يُسْتَدْعَى

And he does not know when he will be summoned.

يُسْتَدْعَى he will be summoned

This is the passive of the verb 'to summon': it reports that he will be called without naming who calls, leaving the summoner unstated. Arabic forms this passive by changing the verb's inner vowels rather than adding a helper word, keeping the focus on the man as the one acted upon.
