38:43 And We restored his family to him and the like of them[1] as a mercy from Us and as a reminder for people of understanding.

38:44 [We said], “Take a bunch of grass in your hand, and strike [your wife] with it, and do not break your oath[1].” We truly found him patient – an excellent and faithful slave he was. He constantly turned [to Us].

38:45 Remember Our slaves: Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob – men of strength and insight.

38:46 We chose them exclusively for the remembrance of the Final Home.

38:47 Indeed, they are before us among the chosen and best ones.

38:48 Also remember Ishmael, Elisha, and Dhul-Kifl[1] – all were among the best.

38:49 This is a reminder. And the righteous will surely have a good return:

38:50 Gardens of Eternity, with gates wide open for them.

38:51 They will recline therein, calling for abundant fruit and drink.

38:52 And they will have maidens of modest gaze[1] and equal age.

38:53 This is what you are promised for the Day of Account.

38:54 Indeed, this is Our provision [for the righteous] that will never cease.

38:55 This [is so]. But the transgressors will surely have the worst return:

38:56 Hell, where they will burn. What a terrible resting place!

38:57 Let them taste this: scalding water and pus,

38:58 and other similar [torments] of various kinds.

38:59 [The misleaders will say], “Here is a crowd of people being thrown in with you. They are not welcome! They will surely burn in the Fire.”

38:60 They will say, “No! You are not welcome! You brought this on us. What a terrible place to settle in!”

38:61 They will say, “Our Lord, whoever brought this on us, give him double punishment in the Fire.”
