Then, the first will say to the last: 'You were no better than us. ' So taste the punishment for what you have earned. (39)

The gates of heaven shall not be opened for those who have belied and grew proud against Our verses; nor shall they enter Paradise until a camel shall pass through the eye of a needle. As such We shall recompense the sinners. (40)

Gehenna (Hell) shall be their cradle, and layers of fire shall cover them. As such We recompense the harmdoers. (41)

As for those who believe and do good works We never charge a soul with more than it can bear they are the companions of Paradise, and there they shall live for ever. (42)

We shall strip away all rancor from their chests. Rivers shall flow underneath them, and they shall say: 'Praise be to Allah who has guided us to this. Had Allah not given us guidance we should not have been guided. The Messengers of our Lord surely came with the truth. ' Then they are called: 'This is the Paradise which you have inherited for what you did. ' (43)

Then the companions of Paradise will call out to the companions of the Fire: 'What our Lord promised we have found to be true, have you too, found the promise of your Lord to be true? ' 'Yes, ' they shall answer, and a Caller will announce between them that the curse of Allah is upon the harmdoers, (44)

who have barred others from the Path of Allah and sought to make it crooked, and who had no belief in the Everlasting Life. (45)

And between them is a veil, and on the ramparts there shall stand men who will know each by their marks. To the companions of Paradise they shall call: 'Peace be upon you! ' Yet they did not enter it on account of their eagerness. (46)

And when they turn their eyes towards the companions of the Fire, they will say: 'Lord, do not cast us among the harmdoers! ' (47)

And the companions of the ramparts call to men whose marks they recognize: 'Neither your amassing nor your pride have availed you. (48)
