Surah Az-Zukhruf — 43:74

إِنَّ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ فِى عَذَابِ جَهَنَّمَ خَـٰلِدُونَ

Innal mujrimeena fee 'azaabi jahannama khaalidoon

Doğrusu suçlular, temelli kalacakları cehennemin azabı içindedirler.

Indeed, the guilty will remain in the punishment of jahannam, there to stay.

Reflection

The verse turns a corner. Everything from verse sixty-eight onward has described the garden in the vocabulary of wealth, gold trays and goblets and whatever the eye enjoys, which in a surah named for ornament is pointed, since those are the things the deniers already had. Mujrimūn comes from a root meaning to cut off, and two verses further on the passage insists the severing was their own doing.
