لَا يَصْلَىٰهَآ إِلَّا ٱلْأَشْقَى
L a ya s l a h a ill a alashq a
[the fire] which none shall have to endure but that most hapless wretch
  - Mohammad Asad
in which none shall burn except the wretched
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
in which none will burn except the most wretched-
  - Mustafa Khattab
Which only the most wretched must endure,
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
None shall reach it but those most unfortunate ones 6169
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The Fire of Punishment will not reach any except those who have deliberately sinned against their conscience and rejected Allah's Truth. The term used for them is "Ashqa" (superlative degree). Cf. lxxxvii. 11. The corresponding idea in Christian theology is expressed in the following sentence. "All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men" (Matt. xii. 31).
