وَلَوۡلَا نِعۡمَةُ رَبِّي لَكُنتُ مِنَ ٱلۡمُحۡضَرِينَ
(37:57) But for Allah's favour, I should be one of those who have been mustered
here.2
here.2
أَفَمَا نَحۡنُ بِمَيِّتِينَ
(37:58) So, are we not going to die,
إِلَّا مَوۡتَتَنَا ٱلۡأُولَىٰ وَمَا نَحۡنُ بِمُعَذَّبِينَ
(37:59) except for our first death? And shall we suffer no chastisement?'”3
إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ ٱلۡفَوۡزُ ٱلۡعَظِيمُ
(37:60) Surely this is the supreme triumph.
لِمِثۡلِ هَٰذَا فَلۡيَعۡمَلِ ٱلۡعَٰمِلُونَ
(37:61) For the like of it should the workers work.
أَذَٰلِكَ خَيۡرٞ نُّزُلًا أَمۡ شَجَرَةُ ٱلزَّقُّومِ
(37:62) Is this a better hospitality or the tree of al-Zaqqum?4
إِنَّا جَعَلۡنَٰهَا فِتۡنَةٗ لِّلظَّـٰلِمِينَ
(37:63) We have made this tree a trial for the wrong-doers.5
إِنَّهَا شَجَرَةٞ تَخۡرُجُ فِيٓ أَصۡلِ ٱلۡجَحِيمِ
(37:64) It is a tree that grows in the nethermost part of Hell.
