سورة الزخرف، الآية ٣٩
وَلَن يَنفَعَكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ إِذ ظَّلَمْتُمْ أَنَّكُمْ فِى ٱلْعَذَابِ مُشْتَرِكُونَ ٣٩
walan yanfaʿakumu l-yawma idh ẓalamtum annakum fī l-ʿadhābi mush'tarikūna
And never will it benefit you that Day, when you have wronged, that you are [all] sharing in the punishment.
Verse 39 of Surah Az-Zukhruf (43:39), a Meccan surah, is in juz 25, on page 492 of the mushaf. Read it in Arabic with its transliteration, translations and tafsir, and listen to it recited by 74 reciters.
80 recitations by 74 reciters: pick one and it plays in the player.
Allah will say to the disbelievers on the Day of Judgement, “After you have oppressed yourselves by ascribing partners to Me and committing sins, your sharing the punishment will not benefit you in the slightest today, despite you accompanying each other in disbelief and committing sins in the world.”
[They will be told], “As you have done wrong, it will not benefit you Today that you are sharing the punishment14.”
[14] In the life of this world, it is comforting to many people when they hear that others also went through similar trials. However, this will not be the case on Judgment Day, as everyone will be desperate to save themselves, regardless of what happens to others.
It will profit you not this Day (O you who turn away from Allâh’s remembrance and His worship) as you did wrong, (and) that you will be sharers (you and your Qarîn ) in the punishment.
And it profiteth you not this day, because ye did wrong, that ye will be sharers in the doom.
When ye have done wrong, it will avail you nothing, that Day, that ye shall be partners in Punishment!
And since you were unjust, it will not profit you this day that you are sharers in the chastisement.
And it will never profit you today, as you did injustice, that you are partners in the torment.
They share a sequence of words with this verse: useful for telling them apart when memorising.
فَإِنَّهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ فِى ٱلْعَذَابِ مُشْتَرِكُونَ
So indeed they, that Day, will be sharing in the punishment.
