سُوْرَةُ يُوْنُسَ
Surah Yunus (10) — Ayah 27
وَٱلَّذِينَ كَسَبُوا۟ ٱلسَّيِّـَٔاتِ جَزَآءُ سَيِّئَةٍۭ بِمِثْلِهَا وَتَرْهَقُهُمْ ذِلَّةٌ ۖ مَّا لَهُم مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ مِنْ عَاصِمٍ ۖ كَأَنَّمَآ أُغْشِيَتْ وُجُوهُهُمْ قِطَعًا مِّنَ ٱلَّيْلِ مُظْلِمًا ۚ أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ أَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلنَّارِ ۖ هُمْ فِيهَا خَـٰلِدُونَ ﴿27﴾
Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
And those who have earned evil deeds, the recompense of an evil deed is the like thereof, and humiliating disgrace will cover them (their faces). No defender will they have from Allâh. Their faces will be covered as it were with pieces from the darkness of night. They are the dwellers of the Fire, they will abide therein forever.

27. But those who have done evil deeds will be recompensed with the like of what they have done. Humiliation will cover them, and they will have no protector against Allah. Their faces will be covered with darkness, as if veils of the dark [40] night had fallen over them. These are the inhabitants of the Fire; they will abide therein forever.
[40] Even in this world, when a criminal is caught or loses hope of release, darkness and humiliation cover his face. And since these people will be habitual criminals and there will be no way for their salvation, such darkness will cover their faces as if a portion of the dark night has been cast upon them.
