Verses 1–3 of 3
If they could find A place to flee to, Or caves, or a place Of concealment, they would Turn straightway thereto, With an obstinate rush.
Surah At-Tawbah, verse 9:57(He turned in mercy also) To the three who were left Behind; (they felt guilty) To such a degree that the earth Seemed constrained to them, For all its spaciousness, And their (very) Souls seemed Straitened to them, And they perceived that There is no fleeing from God (And no refuge) but to Himself. Then He turned to them, That they might repent: For God is Oft-Returning, Most Merciful.
Surah At-Tawbah, verse 9:118Hearken ye to your Lord, Before there come a Day Which there will be No putting back, because Of (the ordainment of) God! That Day there will be For you no place of refuge Nor will there be for you Any room for denial (Of your sins)!
