[For now they have been told,] 'Enter paradise; no fear need you have, and neither shall you grieve!' 49 And the fellows of the Fire will cry unto the fellows of the Garden: pour out on us water or aught wherewith Allah hath provided you.

They have lost their souls, and that which they devised hath failed them. 53
