Translation — Tafsir

Word Meanings:

Mihad (مِهَاد): A bed, resting place, or mattress spread beneath someone.
Ghawaash (غَوَاشٍ): Plural of *ghaashiyah*; coverings or sheets that envelop and overwhelm from above.

Tafsir (Explanation):

For these disbelievers who rejected the truth and arrogantly turned away from their Lord, Hellfire will be their eternal abode. Beneath them, they will have beds of fire—a scorching mattress that burns their bodies from below—and above them, coverings of fire that enshroud them from every side, sealing them in torment. There is no escape, no relief, and no coolness to ease their suffering. This is the precise and just recompense that Allah, the All-Wise, gives to the wrongdoers—those who transgressed His limits, disbelieved in His signs, and persisted in their oppression against themselves and others.

A Call to Reflection and Faith:

How immense is the mercy of Allah that He has warned us of this punishment before it comes! He does not wish to destroy us; rather, He invites us to turn back to Him, to embrace His guidance, and to save ourselves from such a fate. The fire of this world is but a faint glimpse of what awaits the unjust, yet the doors of repentance remain wide open. Every breath you take is an opportunity to return to your Creator, to soften your heart with His remembrance, and to walk the path of righteousness. Do not let arrogance or pride—the very traits that led these people to Hell—deprive you of the eternal bliss of Paradise. Choose today to be among the believers who submit to Allah, for His mercy encompasses all things, and His forgiveness is greater than any sin you may have committed. Let this verse be a wake-up call: the Hereafter is real, the reckoning is certain, and the wisest of people are those who prepare for it while there is still time.

📜 Verse 39-43 — Al-A'raf

39وَقَالَتۡ أُولَىٰهُمۡ لِأُخۡرَىٰهُمۡ فَمَا كَانَ لَكُمۡ عَلَيۡنَا مِن فَضۡلٍ فَذُوقُواْ ٱلۡعَذَابَ بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَكۡسِبُونَ

And the first of them will say to the last of them, "Then you had not any favor over us, so taste the punishment for what you used to earn."

40إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُواْ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا وَٱسۡتَكۡبَرُواْ عَنۡهَا لَا تُفَتَّحُ لَهُمۡ أَبۡوَٰبُ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَلَا يَدۡخُلُونَ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ حَتَّىٰ يَلِجَ ٱلۡجَمَلُ فِي سَمِّ ٱلۡخِيَاطِۚ وَكَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي ٱلۡمُجۡرِمِينَ

Indeed, those who deny Our verses and are arrogant toward them - the gates of Heaven will not be opened for them, nor will they enter Paradise until a camel enters into the eye of a needle. And thus do We recompense the criminals.

41لَهُم مِّن جَهَنَّمَ مِهَادٌ وَمِن فَوۡقِهِمۡ غَوَاشٍۚ وَكَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ

They will have from Hell a bed and over them coverings [of fire]. And thus do We recompense the wrongdoers.

42وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَا نُكَلِّفُ نَفۡسًا إِلَّا وُسۡعَهَآ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلۡجَنَّةِۖ هُمۡ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ

But those who believed and did righteous deeds - We charge no soul except [within] its capacity. Those are the companions of Paradise; they will abide therein eternally.

43وَنَزَعۡنَا مَا فِي صُدُورِهِم مِّنۡ غِلٍّ تَجۡرِي مِن تَحۡتِهِمُ ٱلۡأَنۡهَٰرُۖ وَقَالُواْ ٱلۡحَمۡدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِي هَدَىٰنَا لِهَٰذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لِنَهۡتَدِيَ لَوۡلَآ أَنۡ هَدَىٰنَا ٱللَّهُۖ لَقَدۡ جَآءَتۡ رُسُلُ رَبِّنَا بِٱلۡحَقِّۖ وَنُودُوٓاْ أَن تِلۡكُمُ ٱلۡجَنَّةُ أُورِثۡتُمُوهَا بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ

And We will have removed whatever is within their breasts of resentment, [while] flowing beneath them are rivers. And they will say, "Praise to Allah, who has guided us to this; and we would never have been guided if Allah had not guided us. Certainly the messengers of our Lord had come with the truth." And they will be called, "This is Paradise, which you have been made to inherit for what you used to do."
