وَٱلَّذِينَ سَعَوْا۟ فِىٓ ءَايَٰتِنَا مُعَٰجِزِينَ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْجَحِيمِ ٥١

But the ones who strove against Our verses, [seeking] to cause failure932 - those are the companions of Hellfire.
[932] i.e., trying to undermine their credibility and thereby defeat the Prophet (ﷺ).
Verse 51 of Surah Al-Hajj (22:51), a Medinan surah, is in juz 17, on page 338 of the mushaf. Read it in Arabic with its transliteration, translations and tafsir, and listen to it recited by 72 reciters.
78 recitations by 72 reciters: pick one and it plays in the player.
Those who strive to deny our verses, believing they will be able to render Allah powerless and escape Him so that He cannot punish them, those are the people of the fire of hell, staying constantly in it just as companions stay with one another.
But those who strive to discredit Our verses25, they are the people of the Blazing Fire.”
[25] In order to defeat the Prophet (ﷺ).
But those who strive against Our Ayât (proofs, evidence, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.), to frustrate them, they will be dwellers of the Hell-fire.
While those who strive to thwart Our revelations, such are rightful owners of the Fire.
"But those who strive against Our Signs, to frustrate them,- they will be Companions of the Fire."
And (as for) those who strive to oppose Our communications, they shall be the inmates of the flaming fire.
And the ones who have endeavored against Our signs trying to defy them, those will be the companions (i.e., inhabitants) of Hell-Fire.
ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ وَصَدُّوا۟ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ زِدْنَٰهُمْ عَذَابًا فَوْقَ ٱلْعَذَابِ بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يُفْسِدُونَ
Those who disbelieved and averted [others] from the way of Allāh - We will increase them in punishment over [their] punishment for what corruption they were causing.
They share a sequence of words with this verse: useful for telling them apart when memorising.
وَٱلَّذِينَ سَعَوْ فِىٓ ءَايَٰتِنَا مُعَٰجِزِينَ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مِّن رِّجْزٍ أَلِيمٌ
But those who strive against Our verses [seeking] to cause failure - for them will be a painful punishment of foul nature.
وَٱلَّذِينَ يَسْعَوْنَ فِىٓ ءَايَٰتِنَا مُعَٰجِزِينَ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ فِى ٱلْعَذَابِ مُحْضَرُونَ
And the ones who strive against Our verses to cause [them] failure - those will be brought into the punishment [to remain].
