Al-Muddaththir 74:48
The Cloaked One · Meccan · Juz 29 · Page 577
Intercession Will Not Help
فَمَا تَنفَعُهُمۡ شَفَٰعَةُ ٱلشَّـٰفِعِينَ ٤٨
The mediation of no mediators will avail them then.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
So the intercession of intercessors will not benefit them.
Insight
According to Elmalılı, there will be intercession for believers that day; had these not denied, intercession might have been possible for them, but they died without faith.
Reflect
Renew your faith today to be worthy of intercession.
