Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: (The one who will be burned in the Great Fire)]

Allah the Exalted said:

⁽¹²⁾ [He] who will [enter and] burn in the greatest Fire, ⁽¹³⁾ Neither dying therein nor living.

الَّذِي يَصْلَى النَّارَ الْكُبْرَى * ثُمَّ لا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلا يَحْيَى

[Al-A'la: 12-13] The one who will be burned in the Fire described as the Great Fire, which is: the Fire of Hell; because the Fire of this world is small in comparison to it. It is authentically reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: (Your fire is one part of seventy parts of the Fire of Hell) meaning: the Fire of the Hereafter exceeds the Fire of this world by sixty-nine times.

And the intended meaning is: The entire Fire of this world is not a specific fire, but rather it is the most intense of the Fire of this world, for the Fire of the Hereafter exceeds it by sixty-nine parts.For this reason, Allah described it by saying:

The Great Fire

النَّارَ الْكُبْرَى

[Al-A'la: 12] Then, when he is burned in it, he will not die therein nor live.The meaning: He will not die so that he may find rest, nor will he live a happy life. Otherwise, they are alive in reality, but they are living while being tormented.

Every time their skins are roasted through We will replace them with other skins

كُلَّمَا نَضِجَتْ جُلُودُهُمْ بَدَّلْنَاهُمْ جُلُوداً غَيْرَهَا

[Al-Nisa: 56] As Allah Mighty and Majestic said:

And they will call, "O Malik

وَنَادَوْا يَا مَالِكُ

[Al-Zukhruf: 77] He is the keeper of the Fire.

let your Lord put an end to us

لِيَقْضِ عَلَيْنَا رَبُّكَ

[Al-Zukhruf: 77] meaning: that our Lord may destroy us and relieve us from this punishment.

He will say, "Indeed, you will remain."

قَالَ إِنَّكُمْ مَاكِثُونَ

[Al-Zukhruf: 77] Therein is the abiding punishment.And it is said to them:

We had certainly brought you the truth, but most of you, to the truth, were averse.

لَقَدْ جِئْنَاكُمْ بِالْحَقِّ وَلَكِنَّ أَكْثَرَكُمْ لِلْحَقِّ كَارِهُونَ

[Al-Zukhruf: 78] .

This is the meaning of his saying:

he will neither die therein nor live.

لا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلا يَحْيَى

[Al-A'la: 13] For it may be difficult for some people to understand how a person can be neither alive nor dead?It is said: He will not die a death that brings him rest, nor will he live a life that brings him happiness. So, may Allah protect us, he is in punishment, torment, and severity. He wishes for death, but it does not come to him.This is the meaning of the saying of Allah the Exalted:

Neither dying therein nor living.

ثُمَّ لا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلا يَحْيَى

[Al-A'la: 13] .
