Surah 74

About Al-Mujrimûn (polytheists, criminals, disbelievers), (And they will say to them):

"What has caused you to enter Hell?"

They will say: "We were not of those who used to offer the Salât (prayers),[2]

"Nor we used to feed Al-Miskîn (the poor);

"And we used to talk falsehood (all that which Allâh hated) with vain talkers.[3]

And we used to belie the Day of Recompense,[4]

"Until there came to us (the death) that is certain."

So no intercession of intercessors will be of any use to them.

Then what is wrong with them (i.e. the polytheists, the disbelievers) that they turn away from (receiving) admonition?

As if they were (frightened) wild donkeys.

Fleeing from a hunter, or a lion, or a beast of prey.

Nay, everyone of them desires that he should be given pages spread out (coming from Allâh with a writing that Islâm is the right religion, and Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم has come with the truth from Allâh, the Lord of the heavens and earth).

Nay! But they fear not the Hereafter (from Allâh’s punishment).

Nay, verily, this (Qur’an) is an admonition,

So whosoever will (let him read it), and receive admonition (from it)!

And they will not receive admonition unless Allâh wills; He (Allâh) is the One, deserving that mankind should be afraid of, and should be dutiful to Him, and should not take any Ilâh (god) along with Him, and He is the One Who forgives (sins).
