The Holy Quran 41:24 — Surah Fussilat

Arabic text

فَإِن يَصْبِرُوا۟ فَٱلنَّارُ مَثْوًى لَّهُمْ ۖ وَإِن يَسْتَعْتِبُوا۟ فَمَا هُم مِّنَ ٱلْمُعْتَبِينَ

Translation

Even if they exercise patience, (it will be useless to them because) the Fire shall (still) be their abode (final destination). And (their position will be so unpromising that even) if they try to please Allaah (using whatever means they have), they will never be allowed to do so.

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

Shah [Abd al-Qadir] ﵀ writes: “That is, in the world some calamity is eased by patience; there, whether they are patient or not, Hell has become their home (from which there is no leaving ever). And some calamity is averted by pleading and flattery; there, however much they wish to plead, no one accepts.”
