Sura 87
Aya 13
13
ثُمَّ لا يَموتُ فيها وَلا يَحيىٰ

Yusuf Ali

In which they will then neither die nor live.1
  • A terrible picture of those who ruin their whole future by evil lives here below. They introduce a discord into Creation, while life should be one great universal concord. And their past clings to them as part of their own will. They are not even like the dry swarthy stubble mentioned in verse 5 above, which grew naturally out of the luscious pasture, for they have grown harmful, in defiance of their own nature. “Neither die nor live”; Cf. 20:74.
