سُورَةُ النَّبَإِ
An-Naba — The Announcement
إِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ كَانَتْ مِرْصَادًۭا
Indeed, Hell has been lying in wait
لِّلطَّٰغِينَ مَـَٔابًۭا
For the transgressors, a place of return,
لَّٰبِثِينَ فِيهَآ أَحْقَابًۭا
In which they will remain for ages [unending].
لَّا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا بَرْدًۭا وَلَا شَرَابًا
They will not taste therein [any] coolness or drink
إِلَّا حَمِيمًۭا وَغَسَّاقًۭا
Except scalding water and [foul] purulence -
جَزَآءًۭ وِفَاقًا
An appropriate recompense.
إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ لَا يَرْجُونَ حِسَابًۭا
Indeed, they were not expecting an account
وَكَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا كِذَّابًۭا
And denied Our verses with [emphatic] denial.
وَكُلَّ شَىْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَٰهُ كِتَٰبًۭا
But all things We have enumerated in writing.
فَذُوقُوا۟ فَلَن نَّزِيدَكُمْ إِلَّا عَذَابًا
"So taste [the penalty], and never will We increase you except in torment."
