The Ant · Meccan · Juz 20 · Page 385
Recompense for Your Deeds
وَمَن جَآءَ بِٱلسَّيِّئَةِ فَكُبَّتۡ وُجُوهُهُمۡ فِي ٱلنَّارِ هَلۡ تُجۡزَوۡنَ إِلَّا مَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ ٩٠
And whoso bringeth an ill-deed, such will be flung down on their faces in the Fire. Are ye rewarded aught save what ye did.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
Whoever brings evil will be thrown face down into the Fire: “Are you recompensed except for what you did?”
Insight
According to Elmalılı, after this the Messenger is commanded to say the words at the sura’s close.
Reflect
Don’t forget your deeds will return to you.
