Then on that Day, the excuses of wrongdoers will not benefit them, nor will they be asked to appease.
It is told in verse 39: 47: “Even if the wrongdoers have all that is on the Earth and have so much as of that, he would offer that as a ransom on the Day of Judgment for escaping from the evil of punishment, it will not be accepted. It will be revealed from their Lord what they had not been expecting”. It is told in verse 66: 6-7: “Oh believers! You save yourselves and your families from the Hellfire, fuel of which is men and stones, in the charge of it are the fierce and mighty Angels who never disobey Lord’s command and who promptly do what they are commanded. You make no excuses that Day. You will only be recompensed for what you used to do”. See explanation 3: 91 and 10: 54.
