Surah 35. Fatir, Ayah 37
| وَهُمْ يَصْطَرِخُونَ فِيهَا رَبَّنَا أَخْرِجْنَا نَعْمَلْ صَالِحًا غَيْرَ الَّذِي كُنَّا نَعْمَلُ ۚ أَوَلَمْ نُعَمِّرْكُمْ مَا يَتَذَكَّرُ فِيهِ مَنْ تَذَكَّرَ وَجَاءَكُمُ النَّذِيرُ ۖ فَذُوقُوا فَمَا لِلظَّالِمِينَ مِنْ نَصِيرٍ |

| Pickthall | : | And they cry for help there, (saying): Our Lord! Release us; we will do right, not (the wrong) that we used to do. Did not We grant you a life long enough for who reflected to reflect therein? And the warner came unto you. Now taste (the flavor of your deeds), for evil doers have no helper. |
| Asad | : | And in that [hell] they will cry aloud: "O our Sustainer! Cause us to come out [of this suffering]! We shall [henceforth] do good deeds, not such as we were wont to do [aforetime]!" [But We shall answer:] "Did We not grant you a life long enough so that whoever was willing to take thought could bethink himself? And [withal,] a war-ner had come unto you! Taste, then, [the fruit of your evil deeds]: for evildoers shall have none to succour them" |
| Malik | : | Therein they shall cry for help: "Our Rabb! Get us out, from now on we shall do good deeds and shall not repeat the ones we used to do". The response will be: "Did we not give you lives long enough so that he who would, could take a warning? Besides, someone did come to warn you. Now taste the fruit of your deeds, here there is no helper for the wrongdoers." |
| Yusuf Ali | : | Therein will they cry aloud (for assistance): "Our Lord! bring us out: we shall work righteousness not the (deeds) we used to do!" Did we not give you long enough life so that he that would should receive admonition? And (moreover) the warner came to you. So taste ye (the fruit of your deeds): for the Wrongdoers there is no helper." 3926 3927 3928 |
Note - 3926Cf. xxiii 107. Not only will their surroundings be the
opposite of those in Heaven: their internal state will be
one of humiliation, of piteous and fruitless appeals, of
vain regrets for a past that cannot be recalled, and vain
sights for a future whose gates they have themselves
barred. If they were sent back, they would relapse to
their sins. Cf. vi. 28.
|
Note - 3927Cf. vii. 53. Their hankering after another chance, after
having deliberately rejected all chances, will have no
basis of reason in it.
|
Note - 3928They had a long enough respite for repentance and
amendment. And moreover, besides all the other sources,
in nature, history, and their own hearts, by which they
could learn of the Right, they had the actual teaching
and warning of a messenger whose words spoke direct to
them. In the circumstances the Penalty is only the fruit
of their own conduct.
