Transliteration:( Maa salakakum fee saqar )
38. This question would be to embarrass the inmates of Hell. Otherwise, the inmates of Paradise would be aware that these people are placed in Hell due to their infidelity. It should be remembered that the sinful believers who will be placed in Hell, would not be asked this question by the inmates of Paradise. They would, in fact, be interceding for them and through the permission of Allah Almighty. would be taking them out of Hell. Thus, the verse is very clear.
