Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster,
Kalla layunbathanna fee alhutamati

And what will make you realize what the crushing disaster is?

Which rises above the hearts.

lnnaha AAalayhim musadatun
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
In extended columns.
Fee AAamadin mumaddadatin
