37. Safat · verses 64–73

إِنَّهَا شَجَرَةٞ تَخۡرُجُ فِيٓ أَصۡلِ ٱلۡجَحِيمِ

Innaha shajaratun takhruju fee asli aljaheemi

For it is a tree that springs out of the bottom of Hell-Fire:

طَلۡعُهَا كَأَنَّهُۥ رُءُوسُ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينِ

TalAAuha kaannahu ruoosu alshshayateeni

The shoots of its fruit-stalks are like the heads of devils:

فَإِنَّهُمۡ لَأٓكِلُونَ مِنۡهَا فَمَالِـُٔونَ مِنۡهَا ٱلۡبُطُونَ

Fainnahum laakiloona minha famalioona minha albutoona

Truly they will eat thereof and fill their bellies therewith.

ثُمَّ إِنَّ لَهُمۡ عَلَيۡهَا لَشَوۡبٗا مِّنۡ حَمِيمٖ

Thumma inna lahum AAalayha lashawban min hameemin

Then on top of that they will be given a mixture made of boiling water.

ثُمَّ إِنَّ مَرۡجِعَهُمۡ لَإِلَى ٱلۡجَحِيمِ

Thumma inna marjiAAahum laila aljaheemi

Then shall their return be to the (Blazing) Fire.

إِنَّهُمۡ أَلۡفَوۡاْ ءَابَآءَهُمۡ ضَآلِّينَ

Innahum alfaw abaahum dalleena

Truly they found their fathers on the wrong Path;

فَهُمۡ عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَٰرِهِمۡ يُهۡرَعُونَ

Fahum AAala atharihim yuhraAAoona

So they (too) were rushed down on their footsteps!

وَلَقَدۡ ضَلَّ قَبۡلَهُمۡ أَكۡثَرُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ

Walaqad dalla qablahum aktharu alawwaleena

And truly before them, many of the ancients went astray;-

وَلَقَدۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَا فِيهِم مُّنذِرِينَ

Walaqad arsalna feehim munthireena

But We sent aforetime, among them, (messengers) to admonish them;-

فَٱنظُرۡ كَيۡفَ كَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلۡمُنذَرِينَ

Faonthur kayfa kana AAaqibatu almunthareena

Then see what was the end of those who were admonished (but heeded not),-
