عَنِ الْمُجْرِمِينَ
41. About the criminals,
مَا سَلَكَكُمْ فِي سَقَرَ
42. [And asking them], "What put you into Saqar?"
قَالُوا لَمْ نَكُ مِنَ الْمُصَلِّينَ
43. They will say, "We were not of those who prayed,
وَلَمْ نَكُ نُطْعِمُ الْمِسْكِينَ
44. Nor did we used to feed the poor.
وَكُنَّا نَخُوضُ مَعَ الْخَائِضِينَ
45. And we used to enter into vain discourse with those who engaged [in it],
وَكُنَّا نُكَذِّبُ بِيَوْمِ الدِّينِ
46. And we used to deny the Day of Recompense
حَتَّىٰ أَتَانَا الْيَقِينُ
47. Until there came to us the certainty."
فَمَا تَنْفَعُهُمْ شَفَاعَةُ الشَّافِعِينَ
48. So there will not benefit them the intercession of [any] intercessors.
فَمَا لَهُمْ عَنِ التَّذْكِرَةِ مُعْرِضِينَ
49. Then what is [the matter] with them that they are, from the reminder, turning away
كَأَنَّهُمْ حُمُرٌ مُسْتَنْفِرَةٌ
50. As if they were alarmed donkeys
