Read in Context

Chapter 74, Page 576, Juz 29

32. Truly, I swear by the moon, 33. and by the night when it goes back, 34. and by the morning when it becomes bright, 35. it (Saqar : Hell) is one of the greatest things 36. as a warning to the mankind, 37. to the one from among you who wishes to come forward (towards good deeds) or to go back (from them). 38. Everyone will be detained (in the Hell) because of what he did, 39. except the People of the Right, (i.e. those who will be given their Book of Deeds in their right hands) 40. who will be in gardens, asking 41. about the guilty persons, 42. “What has brought you to Saqar? (Hell)” 43. They will say, “We were not among those who offered Salāh , (obligatory prayer) 44. and we did not give food to the needy, 45. and we indulged (in mocking at the truth) along with those who indulged, 46. and we used to deny the Day of Requital, 47. until when we were overtaken by that which is certain.” 48. Then intercession of intercessors will not benefit them.
