As-Saffat 37:55

one will say, ‘I had a close companion on earth

Translation 1260

who used to ask me, “Do you really believe that

Translation 1260

after we die and become dust and bone, we shall be brought for judgement?”’

Translation 1260

Then he will say, ‘Shall we look for him?’

Translation 1260

He will look down and see him in the midst of the Fire

Translation 1260

and say to him, ‘By God, you almost brought me to ruin

Translation 1260

Had it not been for the grace of my Lord, I too would have been taken to Hell.’

Translation 1260

Then he will say [to his blessed companions], ‘Are we never to die again after our earlier death

Translation 1260

Shall we never suffer

Translation 1260

This truly is the supreme triumph!’

Translation 1260

Everyone should strive to attain this

Translation 1260

Is this the better welcome, or the tree of Zaqqum

Translation 1260

which we have made a test for the evildoers

Translation 1260

This tree grows in the heart of the blazing Fire

Translation 1260

and its fruits are like devils’ heads

Translation 1260

They will fill their bellies eating from it

Translation 1260

then drink scalding water on top of it

Translation 1260

then return to the blazing Fire

Translation 1260

They found their forefathers astray

Translation 1260

and rushed to follow in their footsteps- before the disbelievers [of Mecca]

Translation 1260

most men in the past went astray

Translation 1260

even though We sent messengers to warn them

Translation 1260

See how those who were warned met their end

Translation 1260

Not so the true servants of God

Translation 1260

Noah cried to Us, and how excellent was Our response

Translation 1260
