إِنّا جَعَلناها فِتنَةً لِلظّالِمينَ

Indeed, We have made it a torment for the wrongdoers.

إِنَّها شَجَرَةٌ تَخرُجُ في أَصلِ الجَحيمِ

Indeed, it is a tree issuing from the bottom of the Hellfire,

طَلعُها كَأَنَّهُ رُءوسُ الشَّياطينِ

Its emerging fruit as if it was heads of the devils.

فَإِنَّهُم لَآكِلونَ مِنها فَمالِئونَ مِنهَا البُطونَ

And indeed, they will eat from it and fill with it their bellies.

ثُمَّ إِنَّ لَهُم عَلَيها لَشَوبًا مِن حَميمٍ

Then indeed, they will have after it a mixture of scalding water.

إِنَّهُم أَلفَوا آباءَهُم ضالّينَ

Indeed they found their fathers astray.

فَهُم عَلىٰ آثارِهِم يُهرَعونَ

So they hastened [to follow] in their footsteps.

وَلَقَد ضَلَّ قَبلَهُم أَكثَرُ الأَوَّلينَ

And there had already strayed before them most of the former peoples,

وَلَقَد أَرسَلنا فيهِم مُنذِرينَ

And We had already sent among them warners.

فَانظُر كَيفَ كانَ عاقِبَةُ المُنذَرينَ

Then look how was the end of those who were warned -
