The spiritual pain and the unending remorseWhy is the divine punishment so painful?

Just as there are above the ordinary bounties both physical and spiritual in Paradise and are both attached to each other’s perfection never to be separated the same is there in Hell where we find punishments of both the kinds. The verses of the Qura’n are proof for it so let us pay attention to the following verses:

Verse 57 of Surah Hajj:

“There will be a humiliating punishment for those who reject Our faith and deny Our signs”

Verse 192 of Surah Al Imran:

“You have surely disgraced whoever you force to enter the fire. The wrongdoers will have no helpers.”

Verse 22 of Surah Hajj:

“Each time they wish to escape the punishment they will be forced back (and told) “taste the punishment of the fire!”

Verses 107 and 108 of Surah Muminun:

“Lord! Take us out from here and we shall be the unjust ones if we ever return (to evil ways)” He will tell them, “remain there in disgrace and do not speak to Me.”

Verses 49 and 50 of Surah Mumin:

“Those in the fire shall say to the guardians of Hell, “Beseech your Lord to reduce the torture at least for a day” They will answer, “Did not your messengers come to you with clear proofs?” They shall say, “Yes” so the guards will reply, “Beg him yourselves and the call of the disbelievers shall be in vain.”

Verse 12 of Surah Furqaan:

“When it sights them from a distance they will hear it raging and roaring.”

Verse 6 of Surah Tahreem: (1)

“O believers! Save yourselves and your families from a fire whose fuel is people and stones, over which are angels, severe and mighty who do not disobey when God has commanded them for they carry our the commands.”

Verse 44 of Surah A’raf:

“The inhabitants of Paradise will call out to those in Hell fire, “we found the promise of our Lord to be true; did you find what your Lord promised to be true?’ They will say, “Yes” Then a crier from their midst will shout “May the curse of God be upon the wrong doers.”

 


 

1. Some other verses also describe the same thing like 5 of Surah Mujadilah, 20 of Surah Sajdah, 50 of Surah A’raf and 35 of Surah Haaqa
