The Day of Decision is the appointed time for all of them-
۟ۙ
the day when no close relation will be of any use to any close relation, nor will they be helped,
۟۠
except the One on whom Allah has mercy. Of course, He is the All-Mighty, the Very-Merciful.

Indeed the tree of zaqqūm
۟
is the food of the sinful,
۟ۙ
like dregs of oil. It will boil in the bellies
۟
like the boiling of hot water.
۟ۗۖ
(It will be said to angels,) “Seize him, and drag him into the midst of the Hell.
۟ؕ
Then pour on his head some torment of boiling water.”
۟
“Have a taste! You are the ‘man of might’, the ‘man of honour’.
۟
This is the thing about which you used to be skeptic.”
۟ۙ
Indeed the God-fearing will be in a place free from fear,
۟ۚۙ
in gardens and fountains.
