[11:98]

He will go before his people on the Day of Resurrection and will lead them to the Fire for watering-place. Ah, hapless is the watering- place (whither they are) led.

[11:99]

A curse is made to follow them in the world and on the Day of Resurrection. Hapless is the gift (that will be) given (them).

[11:100]

That is (something) of the tidings of the townships (which were destroyed of old). We relate it unto thee (Muhammad). Some of them are standing and some (already) reaped.

[11:101]

We wronged them not, but they did wrong themselves; and their gods on whom they call beside Allah availed them naught when came thy Lord’s command; they added to them naught save ruin.

[11:102]

Even thus is the grasp of thy Lord when He graspeth the townships while they are doing wrong. Lo! His grasp is painful, very strong.

[11:103]

Lo! herein verily there is a portent for those who fear the doom of the Hereafter. That is a day unto which mankind will be gathered, and that is a day that will be witnessed.

[11:104]

And We defer it only to a term already reckoned.

[11:105]

On the day when it cometh no soul will speak except by His permission; some among them will be wretched, (others) glad.

[11:106]

As for those who will be wretched (on that day) they will be in the Fire; sighing and wailing will be their portion therein,

[11:107]

Abiding there so long as the heavens and the earth endure save for that which thy Lord willeth. Lo! thy Lord is Doer of what He will.

[11:108]

And as for those who will be glad (that day) they will be in the Garden, abiding there so long as the heavens and the earth endure save for that which thy Lord willeth: a gift unfailing.
