﴿٣١﴾ وَمَا جَعَلْنَا أَصْحَابَ النَّارِ إِلَّا مَلَائِكَةً ۙ وَمَا جَعَلْنَا عِدَّتَهُمْ إِلَّا فِتْنَةً لِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لِيَسْتَيْقِنَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ وَيَزْدَادَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِيمَانًا ۙ وَلَا يَرْتَابَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ ۙ وَلِيَقُولَ الَّذِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ مَرَضٌ وَالْكَافِرُونَ مَاذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِهَٰذَا مَثَلًا ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ يُضِلُّ اللَّهُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ وَيَهْدِي مَنْ يَشَاءُ ۚ وَمَا يَعْلَمُ جُنُودَ رَبِّكَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۚ وَمَا هِيَ إِلَّا ذِكْرَىٰ لِلْبَشَرِ
31. We have appointed none but angels as wardens of the Fire; and We caused their number to be a stumbling block for those who disbelieve; so that those given the Scripture may attain certainty; and those who believe may increase in faith; and those given the Scripture and the believers may not doubt; and those in whose hearts is sickness and the unbelievers may say, “What did Allah intend by this parable?” Thus Allah leads astray whom He wills, and He guides whom He wills. And none knows the soldiers of your Lord except He. And it is but a reminder to the humans.

43. They will say, “We were not of those who prayed.
﴿٤٤﴾ وَلَمْ نَكُ نُطْعِمُ الْمِسْكِينَ
44. Nor did we feed the poor.
﴿٤٥﴾ وَكُنَّا نَخُوضُ مَعَ الْخَائِضِينَ

﴿٥٠﴾ كَأَنَّهُمْ حُمُرٌ مُسْتَنْفِرَةٌ

﴿٥٢﴾ بَلْ يُرِيدُ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مِنْهُمْ أَنْ يُؤْتَىٰ صُحُفًا مُنَشَّرَةً
52. Yet every one of them wants to be given scrolls unrolled.
﴿٥٣﴾ كَلَّا ۖ بَلْ لَا يَخَافُونَ الْآخِرَةَ
53. No indeed! But they do not fear the Hereafter.
﴿٥٤﴾ كَلَّا إِنَّهُ تَذْكِرَةٌ
54. Nevertheless, it is a reminder.
﴿٥٥﴾ فَمَنْ شَاءَ ذَكَرَهُ
55. So whoever wills, shall remember it.

56. But they will not remember—unless Allah wills. He is the Source of Righteousness and the Source of Forgiveness.
