Consequences of disbelief

تَصْلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِيَةً

They will [enter to] burn in an intensely hot Fire.

إِلَّا مَن تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ

However, he who turns away and disbelieves

أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِعَادٍ

Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with ʿAad -

فَصَبَّ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّكَ سَوْطَ عَذَابٍ

So your Lord poured upon them a scourge of punishment.

فَيَوْمَئِذٍ لَّا يُعَذِّبُ عَذَابَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌ

So on that Day, none will punish [as severely] as His punishment,

وَلَا يُوثِقُ وَثَاقَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌ

And none will bind [as severely] as His binding [of the evildoers].

عَلَيْهِمْ نَارٌ مُّؤْصَدَةٌۢ

Over them will be fire closed in.

وَمَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُ مَالُهُۥٓ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰٓ

And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?

أَرَءَيْتَ إِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰٓ

Have you seen if he denies and turns away -

نَاصِيَةٍ كَـٰذِبَةٍ خَاطِئَةٍ

A lying, sinning forelock.

فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٌ

His refuge will be an abyss.

نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌۢ

It is a Fire, intensely hot.

تَبَّتْ يَدَآ أَبِى لَهَبٍ وَتَبَّ

May the hands of Abū Lahab be ruined, and ruined is he.
