290 GENERAL KNOWLEDGE FROM THE QUR'AN
As for those who do not expect to meet Us and are content with the
life of this world and at rest in it, and those who are heedless of Our
Signs, their shelter will be the Fire because of what they earned. (Surah
Yunus, 7-8)
Fire is Their Residence
Allah will admit those who believe to Gardens with rivers flowing
under them.Those who disbelieve have their enjoyment, eating as cattle
eat, but the Fire will be their final residence. (Surah Muhammad, 12)
There are Beds of Hell-Fire and Coverings of Hell
As for those who deny Our Signs and are arrogant regarding them,
the Gates of Heaven will not be opened for them, and they will not
enter the Garden until a camel goes through a needle's eye. That is

coverings (of hell). That is how We repay wrongdoers. (Surat al-A'raf,
40-41)

of Allah reaching right into the heart. It is sealed in above them in tow-

chains, they will cry out there for destruction. (Surat al-Furqan, 13)
They Will be Amid a Thick Black Smoke
Amid searing blasts and scalding water and the murk of thick black
smoke, providing no coolness and no pleasure. (Surat al-Waqi'a, 42-44)
Hell Will be Surrounded by Walls
That Day the men and women of the hypocrites will say to those who
believe, 'Wait for us so that we can borrow some of your light.' They will
be told, 'Go back and look for light!'and a wall will be erected between
them with a gate in it, on the inside of which there will be mercy but be-
fore whose exterior lies the punishment. (Surat al-Hadid, 13)
Say: 'It is the truth from your Lord; so let whoever wishes believe and
whoever wishes disbelieve.' We have prepared for the wrongdoers a Fire
