| [slm] the following verses scared me quite a bit for they are graphic in description. may Allah guide us and save us from the torment of the Fire, ameen. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ S.14 V.42 Think not that Allah doth not heed the deeds of those who do wrong. He but giveth them respite against a Day when the eyes will fixedly stare in horror,- 14.43 They running forward with necks outstretched, their heads uplifted, their gaze returning not towards them, and their hearts a (gaping) void! 14.44 So warn mankind of the Day when the Wrath will reach them: then will the wrong-doers say: "Our Lord! respite us (if only) for a short term: we will answer Thy call, and follow the messengers!" "What! were ye not wont to swear aforetime that ye should suffer no decline? 14.45 "And ye dwelt in the dwellings of men who wronged their own souls; ye were clearly shown how We dealt with them; and We put forth (many) parables in your behoof!" 14.46 Mighty indeed were the plots which they made, but their plots were (well) within the sight of Allah, even though they were such as to shake the hills! 14.47 Never think that Allah would fail his messengers in His promise: for Allah is Exalted in power, - the Lord of Retribution. 14.48 One day the earth will be changed to a different earth, and so will be the heavens, and (men) will be marshalled forth, before Allah, the One, the Irresistible; 14.49 And thou wilt see the sinners that day bound together in fetters;- 14.50 Their garments of liquid pitch, and their faces covered with Fire; 14.51 That Allah may requite each soul according to its deserts; and verily Allah is swift in calling to account. 14.52 Here is a Message for mankind: Let them take warning therefrom, and let them know that He is (no other than) One Allah: let men of understanding take heed. |
