Quran 39:19 — Az-Zumar, verse 19
M. A. S. Abdel Haleem · selected translation
What about the one who has been sentenced to punishment? Can you [Prophet] rescue those already in the Fire?
أَفَمَنْ حَقَّ عَلَيْهِ كَلِمَةُ الْعَذَابِ أَفَأَنْتَ تُنْقِذُ مَنْ فِي النَّارِ
afaman ḥaqqa ʿalayhi kalimatu l-ʿadhābi afa-anta tunqidhu man fī l-nāri
