Ayetآية

An-Naba 78:30

The Tidings · Meccan · Juz 30 · Page 582

Taste!

فَذُوقُواْ فَلَن نَّزِيدَكُمۡ إِلَّا عَذَابًا ۝٣٠

So taste (of that which ye have earned). No increase do We give you save of torment.

Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall

Meaning

“So taste! We will not increase you except in punishment.”

Insight

According to Elmalılı, this is clear evidence that the punishment does not end. Then the passage turns from the state of the arrogant to that of the mindful.

Reflect

Erase a sin with a good deed today.
