ٱلنَّارُ يُعۡرَضُونَ عَلَيۡهَا غُدُوࣰّا وَعَشِيࣰّاۚ وَيَوۡمَ تَقُومُ ٱلسَّاعَةُ أَدۡخِلُوٓاْ ءَالَ فِرۡعَوۡنَ أَشَدَّ ٱلۡعَذَابِ ٤٦
The Fire; they are exposed to it morning and evening; and on the day when the Hour upriseth (it is said): Cause Pharaoh’s folk to enter the most awful doom.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
