25:11

بَلۡ کَذَّبُوۡا بِالسَّاعَۃِ ۟ وَ اَعۡتَدۡنَا لِمَنۡ کَذَّبَ بِالسَّاعَۃِ سَعِیۡرًا ﴿ۚ۱۱﴾

But they have denied the Hour, and We have prepared for those who deny the Hour a Blaze.

 

بَلْ كَذَّبُوا بِالسَّاعَةِ

Nay, they deny the Hour,

means, they say this in stubborn disbelief, not because they are seeking insight and guidance, but because their disbelief in the Day of Resurrection makes them say what they say.

وَأَعْتَدْنَا

And We have prepared,

means, `We have made ready,’

لِمَن كَذَّبَ بِالسَّاعَةِ سَعِيرًا

for those who deny the Hour, a flaming Fire.

means, an unbearably hot and painful torment in the fire of Hell

25:12

اِذَا رَاَتۡہُمۡ مِّنۡ مَّکَانٍۭ بَعِیۡدٍ سَمِعُوۡا لَہَا تَغَیُّظًا وَّ زَفِیۡرًا ﴿۱۲﴾

When the Hellfire sees them from a distant place, they will hear its fury and roaring.

 

إِذَا رَأَتْهُم

When it sees them,

means, when Hell sees them,

مِّن مَّكَانٍ بَعِيدٍ

from a far place,

means from the place of gathering (on the Day of Resurrection),

سَمِعُوا لَهَا تَغَيُّظًا وَزَفِيرًا

they will hear its raging and its roaring.

means, (it will make those sounds) out of hatred towards them.

This is like the Ayah,

إِذَا أُلْقُواْ فِيهَا سَمِعُواْ لَهَا شَهِيقًا وَهِىَ تَفُورُ تَكَادُ تَمَيَّزُ مِنَ الغَيْظِ

When they are cast therein, they will hear the (terrible) drawing in of its breath as it blazes forth. It almost bursts up with fury. (67:7-8),

which means that parts of it almost separate from other parts because of its intense hatred towards those who disbelieved in Allah.

Imam Abu Jafar bin Jarir narrated that Ibn Abbas said:

“A man will be dragged towards Hell, which will be expanding and contracting, and Ar-Rahman will say to it:`What is the matter with you!’

It will say:`He is seeking refuge from me.’

So Allah will say, `Let My servant go.’

Another man will be dragged towards Hell and he will say, `O Lord, I never expected this from You.’

Allah will say, `What did you expect!’

The man will say, `I expected that Your mercy would be great enough to include me.’

So Allah will say, `Let My servant go.’

Another man will be dragged towards Hell, and Hell will bray at him like a donkey braying at barley. Then it will give a moan that will instill fear in everyone.”

Its chain of narrators is Sahih.

سَمِعُوا لَهَا تَغَيُّظًا وَزَفِيرًا

they will hear its raging and its roaring.

Abdur-Razzaq recorded that Ubayd bin Umayr said:

“Hell will utter a moan such that there will be no angel who is close to Allah and no Prophet sent to mankind, but he will fall on his face, shaking all over. Even Ibrahim, peace be upon him, will fall to his knees and say:`O Lord, I do not ask You for salvation this Day except for myself.”

25:13

وَ اِذَاۤ اُلۡقُوۡا مِنۡہَا مَکَانًا ضَیِّقًا مُّقَرَّنِیۡنَ دَعَوۡا ہُنَالِکَ ثُبُوۡرًا ﴿ؕ۱۳﴾

And when they are thrown into a narrow place therein bound in chains, they will cry out thereupon for destruction.

 

وَإِذَا أُلْقُوا مِنْهَا مَكَانًا ضَيِّقًا مُقَرَّنِينَ

And when they shall be thrown into a narrow place thereof, chained together,

Qatadah narrated from Abu Ayyub that Abdullah bin `Amr said:

“Like the point of a spear, i.e., in its narrowness.”

Abu Salih said,
مُقَرَّنِينَ
(chained together),

“This means, tied from their shoulders.”

دَعَوْا هُنَالِكَ ثُبُورًا

they will exclaim therein for destruction.

means, they will utter cries of woe, regret and sorrow.

لَاا تَدْعُوا الْيَوْمَ ثُبُورًا وَاحِدًا وَادْعُوا ثُبُورًا كَثِيرًا

25:14

لَا تَدۡعُوا الۡیَوۡمَ ثُبُوۡرًا وَّاحِدًا وَّ ادۡعُوۡا ثُبُوۡرًا کَثِیۡرًا ﴿۱۴﴾

[They will be told], “Do not cry this Day for one destruction but cry for much destruction.”

Exclaim not today for one destruction, but exclaim for many destructions.

25:15

قُلۡ اَذٰلِکَ خَیۡرٌ اَمۡ جَنَّۃُ الۡخُلۡدِ الَّتِیۡ وُعِدَ الۡمُتَّقُوۡنَ ؕ کَانَتۡ لَہُمۡ جَزَآءً وَّ مَصِیۡرًا ﴿۱۵﴾

Say, “Is that better or the Garden of Eternity which is promised to the righteous? It will be for them a reward and destination.

 

Is the Fire better, or Paradise

Allah says:

قُلْ أَذَلِكَ خَيْرٌ أَمْ جَنَّةُ الْخُلْدِ الَّتِي وُعِدَ الْمُتَّقُونَ كَانَتْ لَهُمْ جَزَاء وَمَصِيرًا

Say:”Is that better or the Paradise of Eternity which is promised to those who have Taqwa!”

It will be theirs as a reward and final destination.

Here Allah says:`O Muhammad, this that We have described to you about the state of those who are doomed, who will be dragged on their faces to Hell, which will receive them with a scowling face, with hatred and moans. There they will be thrown into their constricted spaces, tied up to their shoulders, unable to move or call for help, and unable to escape their plight — is this better, or the eternal Paradise which Allah has promised to the pious among His servants, which He has prepared for them as a reward and ultimate destiny in return for their obedience to Him in this world!

25:16

لَہُمۡ فِیۡہَا مَا یَشَآءُوۡنَ خٰلِدِیۡنَ ؕ کَانَ عَلٰی رَبِّکَ وَعۡدًا مَّسۡـُٔوۡلًا ﴿۱۶﴾

For them therein is whatever they wish, [while] abiding eternally. It is ever upon your Lord a promise [worthy to be] requested.

 

لَهُمْ فِيهَا مَا يَشَاوُونَ

For them there will be therein all that they desire,

of delights such as food, drink, clothing, dwellings, means of transportation and scenery, and other things that no eye has seen, no ear has heard, nor the heart of anyone can comprehend.

خَالِدِينَ

and they will abide (therein forever),

They will abide therein forever; it will never cease or come to an end, and they will never leave it.

This is what Allah has promised to those whom He has blessed and to whom He has shown His favor. He says:

كَانَ عَلَى رَبِّكَ وَعْدًا مَسْوُولاًا

It is a upon your Lord a Wa`dan Mas’ula,

meaning, it must inevitably come to pass.

Abu Jafar bin Jarir reported from some of the scholars of the Arabic language that the words
وَعْدًا مَسْوُولاً
(Wa`dan Mas’ula),

mean:a binding pledge.

In this Surah Allah mentions Hell, then refers to the situation of the people of Paradise. This is similar to the passage in Surah As-Saffat where Allah mentions the status of the people of Paradise, with its beauty and joy, then He says:

أَذَلِكَ خَيْرٌ نُّزُلاً أَمْ شَجَرَةُ الزَّقُّومِ

إِنَّا جَعَلْنَـهَا فِتْنَةً لِّلظَّـلِمِينَ

إِنَّهَا شَجَرَةٌ تَخْرُجُ فِى أَصْلِ الْجَحِيمِ

طَلْعُهَا كَأَنَّهُ رُءُوسُ الشَّيَـطِينِ

فَإِنَّهُمْ لاّكِلُونَ مِنْهَا فَمَالِيُونَ مِنْهَا الْبُطُونَ

ثُمَّ إِنَّ لَهُمْ عَلَيْهَا لَشَوْباً مِنْ حَمِيمٍ

ثُمَّ إِنَّ مَرْجِعَهُمْ لاِلَى الْجَحِيمِ

إِنَّهُمْ أَلْفَوْاْ ءَابَأءَهُمْ ضَألِّينَ

فَهُمْ عَلَى ءَاثَارِهِمْ يُهْرَعُونَ

Is that better entertainment or the tree of Zaqqum! Truly, We have made it a trial for the wrongdoers. Verily, it is a tree that springs out of the bottom of Hellfire, The shoots of its fruit stalks are like the heads of Shayatin. Truly, they will eat thereof and fill their bellies therewith. Then on the top of that they will be given boiling water to drink so that it becomes a mixture. Then thereafter, verily, their return is to the flaming fire of Hell. Verily, they found their fathers on the wrong path. So they hastened in their footsteps! (37:62-70
