206            GENERAL KNOWLEDGE FROM THE QUR'AN


               and curse them many times over!' (Surat al-Ahzab, 66-68)
                 If only you could see when they are standing before the Fire and say-
               ing, 'Oh! If only we could be sent back again, we would not deny the
               Signs of our Lord and we would be among the believers.' (Surat al-
               An'am, 27)
                 They will say, 'Yes indeed, a warner did come to us but we denied
               him and said, "Allah has sent nothing down.You are just greatly mis-
               guided."' They will say, 'If only we had really listened and used our in-
               tellect, we would not have been Companions of the Blaze.' Then they
               will acknowledge their wrong actions. Away with the Companions of
               the Blaze! (Surat al-Mulk, 9-11)
                 Arguing in it with one another, they will say, 'By Allah, we were
               plainly misguided when We equated you with the Lord of all the
               worlds. It was only the evildoers who misguided us and now we have
               no one to intercede for us; we do not have a single loyal friend. If only
               we could have another chance then we would be among the believers!'
               There is certainly a Sign in that, yet most of them are not believers.
               (Surat ash-Shu'ara', 96-103)
                 And that Day Hell is produced, that Day man will remember; but
               how will the remembrance help him? He will say, 'Oh! If only I had
               prepared in advance for this life of mine!' (Surat al-Fajr, 23-24)
                 They Will Want to Trample One Another Under Their Feet
                 Those who disbelieved say, 'Our Lord, show us those jinn and men
               who misguided us and we will place them beneath our feet so that
               they will be among the lowest of the low.' (Surah Fussilat, 29 )
                 They Will be Bundled into Hell
                 They will be bundled into it head first, they and the misled. (Surat
               ash-Shu'ara', 94)
                 They Will be Abject and Frustrated in Their Abasement
                 You will see them as they are exposed to it, abject in their abasement,
               glancing around them furtively. Those who believe will say, 'Truly the
               losers are those who lose themselves and their families on the Day of
               Rising.' The wrongdoers are in an everlasting punishment. (Surat ash-
               Shura, 45)
