104    THOSE WHO EXHAUST ALL THEIR PLEASURES IN THIS LIFE


               [People with intelligence remember Allah:] “Our Lord,
               those You cast into the Fire, You have indeed dis-
               graced. The wrongdoers will have no helpers.” (Surah
               Al ‘Imran: 192)


               They will want light but will be unable to find it

               . . . [they] 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 before whose exterior
               lies the punishment. (Surat al-Hadid: 13)


               They will have the most evil home

               . . . the Day when the excuses of the wrongdoers will
               not help them. The curse will be on them, and they will
               have the most evil Home. (Surah Ghafir: 52)


               YataTheir beds and coverlets will be Hell
               They will have Hell as a resting-place and covering lay-
               ers on top of them. That is how We repay wrongdoers.
               (Surat al-A‘raf: 41)


               They will live in dark, misty places

               . . . and the murk of thick black smoke, providing no
               coolness and no pleasure. (Surat al-Waqi‘a: 43-44)
