Quran 11:99 — Hud, verse 99
M. A. S. Abdel Haleem · selected translation
They were pursued by God’s rejection in this life and will be on the Day of Resurrection, too. What a foul gift to be given!
وَأُتْبِعُوا فِي هَـٰذِهِ لَعْنَةً وَيَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ۚ بِئْسَ الرِّفْدُ الْمَرْفُودُ
wa-ut'biʿū fī hādhihi laʿnatan wayawma l-qiyāmati bi'sa l-rif'du l-marfūdu
