قال ادخلوا في امم قد خلت من قبلكم من الجن والانس في النار كلما دخلت امة لعنت اختها حتى اذا اداركوا فيها جميعا قالت اخراهم لاولاهم ربنا هؤلاء اضلونا فاتهم عذابا ضعفا من النار قال لكل ضعف ولكن لا تعلمون

He will say: "Enter ye In the company of The Peoples who passed away Before you—men and Jinns,— Into the Fire. Every time A new People enters, It curses its sister-People (That went before), until They follow each other, all Into the Fire. Saith the last About the first: "Our Lord! It is these that misled us: So give them a double Penalty in the Fire." He will say: "Doubled For all": but this Ye do not understand.
