The Blaze

ثُمَّ ٱلۡجَحِيمَ صَلُّوهُ ۝٣١

And then expose him to hell-fire.

Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall

Meaning

“Then into Hellfire drive him.”

Insight

Elmalılı explains “al-Jahim” as a great fiercely blazing fire, the most severe layer of Hell; its being placed first gives the sense “there and nowhere else”.

Reflect

Pray today for protection from the Fire.
