is Men and Stones which is prepared for those who reject Faith.

punishment.

our Lord but would be amongst those who believe!.

way of Allah : announce unto them a most grievous chastisement

hell and with it will be branded their foreheads their flanks and their backs
"this is the (treasure) which ye buried for yourselves: taste ye then the
(treasures) ye buried!"
Surah: 10. Yunus
27. But those who have earned evil will have a reward of like evil: ignominy

darkness of Night: they are Companions of the Fire: they will abide therein
(for aye)!

(of servitude): they will be Companions of the Fire who dwell therein (for
aye)!
Surah: 14. Ibrahim

throat: Death will come to him from every quarter yet will he not die: and
in front of him will be a chastisement unrelenting.

on which the wind blows furiously on a tempestuous day: No power have they
over aught that they have earned: That is the straying far far (from the
goal).
21. They will all be marshaled before Allah together: then will the weak say
to those who were arrogant, "For us, we but followed you; can you then avail us
at all against the wrath of Allah?" They will reply, "if we had received the
guidance of Allah, we should have given it to you; to us it makes no
difference (now) whether we rage, or bear (these torments) with patience: For
ourselves there is no way of escape"

relief they will be granted water like melted brass that will scald their
faces. How dreadful the drink! How uncomfortable a couch to recline on!

back therein and (it will be said) "Taste ye the Penalty of Burning!"

Blazing Fire for such as deny the Hour:

raging sigh.

will plead for destruction there and then!

62. Is that the better entertainment or the Tree of Zaqqum?
63. For we have truly made it (as) a trial for the wrong-doers.

chastisement in the fire!"
62. and they will say : How is it with us that we see not men who we used to
number among the bad ones?

They will say, "yes". They will reply, "Then pray (as ye like)! but the prayer
of those without faith is nothing but (futile wandering) in (mazes of) error!"
70. Those who reject the Book and the (revelations) with which We sent Our
messengers: But soon shall they know,-

dragged along-

say: " Allah hath given us speech, -(He) Who giveth speech to everything: He
created you for the first time, and unto Him were ye to return.

hath brought you to destruction, and (now) have ye become of those utterly

will ask "Did no Warner come to you?"

said `Allah never sent down any (Message): ye are in nothing but an
egregious delusion!' "

should not (now) be among the Companions of the Blazing Fire!"

Companions of the Blazing Fire!
