Saqar

سَأُصۡلِيهِ سَقَرَ ۝٢٦

Him shall I fling unto the burning.

Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall

Meaning

I will drive him into Saqar.

Elmalılı explains “Saqar” as one of the names of Hell; it comes from “saqr”, the sun scorching the face, and means scorching.

Do something today that will shield you from the fire.
