Translation
(29) Proceed to that which you denied. (30) Proceed to a shadow rising in three columns: (31) affording neither shade, nor protection from the flames, (32) and throwing up sparks as huge as towers (33) and as bright as a herd of yellow camels. (34) Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth! (35) On that Day they will be speechless, (36) nor shall they be permitted to offer excuses. (37) Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth! (38) This is the Day of Judgement. We have assembled you all together with past generations. (39) If now you have any strategy, use it against Me. (40) Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth!
Commentary
(a) When a man is confronted with the horrors of the Hereafter, he will find himself helpless. At that time, those who were wont to speak as if their vocabulary was inexhaustible, will be rendered speechless.
