8 La ilaha illa huwa yuhyee wayumeetu rabbukum warabbu abaikumu alawwaleena

13 Anna lahumu alththikra waqad jaahum rasoolun mubeenun

13 How will there be for them a reminder [at that time]? And there had come to them a clear Messenger.

14 Thumma tawallaw AAanhu waqaloo muAAallamun majnoonun

15 Inna kashifoo alAAathabi qaleelan innakum AAaidoona

15 Indeed, We will remove the torment for a little. Indeed, you [disbelievers] will return [to disbelief].

35 In hiya illa mawtatuna aloola wama nahnu bimunshareena

35 "There is not but our first death, and we will not be resurrected.

36 Fatoo biabaina in kuntum sadiqeena

46 Kaghalyi alhameemi

46 Like the boiling of scalding water.

47 Khuthoohu faiAAtiloohu ila sawai aljaheemi

47 [It will be commanded], "Seize him and drag him into the midst of the Hellfire,
