وَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ فَتَعۡسࣰا لَّهُمۡ وَأَضَلَّ أَعۡمَٰلَهُمۡ ۝٨

And those who disbelieve, perdition is for them, and He will make their actions vain.

Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall

Meaning

But those who disbelieve, for them is misery.

Insight

Elmalılı explains “ta‘s” as originally slipping and falling on one’s face and never rising, perishing.

Beware of things that would make you slip.
