Surah 56. Al-Waqia, Ayah 42

For this rendering of hamim, see surah {6}, note [62].

Notice the parallelism in the contrast between those in Bliss and those in Misery. The description in each case pursues the idea of contrast. The fierce Blast of Fire and the Boiling Water are in contrast to the happy Lote-tree and the flowers and fruits in verses 28-29 above.
