The Holy Quran 96:15 — Surah Al-'Alaq

Arabic text

كَلَّا لَئِن لَّمْ يَنتَهِ لَنَسْفَعًۢا بِٱلنَّاصِيَةِ

Translation

Never! (He should not be doing this!) If (after being cautioned,) he does not desist (but chooses to continue opposing Islaam and the Muslims), We shall definitely drag him (to Jahannam) by the forelocks...

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

He will be dragged by his forelock: that is, leave it! He knows all this, yet he does not desist from his mischief. Very well, let him now listen carefully: if he does not desist from his mischief, We will drag him by the hair of his head, as animals and wretched captives are dragged.
