A demanding person has asked for the punishment that is going to befall

the disbelievers; there is no one to avert it,

(and it will come) from Allah, the Lord of the stairways,

and his wife and his brother,

and his kindred that sheltered him,

and all those on earth, then he may redeem himself.
