| 37.22 | It will be commanded: "Gather all the wrongdoers, their spouses
and those whom they used to worship |
| 37.23 | besides Allah and show them the way to hell. |
| 37.24 | When they will all be gathered and angels will start pushing them
towards hell, Allah shall say: "Stop for a while, they have to be
questioned: |
| 37.25 | "What is the matter with you today that you do not help each
other?" |
| 37.26 | Nay! On that Day they shall all be submissive. |
| 37.27 | Some of them will step forward to question one another. |
| 37.28 | The followers will say to their leaders: "It was you who used to
come at us from the right hand (right hand is a symbol of
authority) and forced us towards the wrong way." |
| 37.29 | They will reply: "Nay! But it was you who had no faith. |
| 37.30 | we had no power over you, the fact is that you were an inordinate
people; |
| 37.31 | true is the verdict which Our Rabb has passed upon us, we shall
indeed taste the punishment of our sins: |
| 37.32 | We misled you, for we ourselves were astray." |
| 37.33 | So on that Day they shall all be partners in the punishment. |
| 37.34 | Thus, shall We deal with the criminals; |
| 37.35 | for when they were told: "There is no god except Allah," they
used to puff themselves up with pride |
| 37.36 | and say: "What! Should we give up our gods for the sake of a mad
poet?" |
| 37.37 | Whereas he had come with the truth and had confirmed the message
of prior Rasools. |
| 37.38 | Then it will be said: "You are surely going to taste the painful
punishment: |
| 37.39 | and this reward is nothing except what you had done. |
