34. Such people will be driven on their faces towards Hell [45]; their abode is truly evil, and they are the most astray.
[45] That is, the real reason for such objections from the disbelievers is that their intellects have become inverted. They are not even willing to reflect on straightforward matters, so on the Day of Resurrection, We will drive them on their faces towards Hell, as is made clear by the following hadith. Hazrat Anas bin Malik ؓ narrates that a man asked: "O Prophet of Allah ﷺ, will the disbeliever be gathered on his face on the Day of Resurrection?" The Prophet ﷺ replied: "Is not the Lord who made man walk on two feet able to make him walk on his face on the Day of Resurrection?" [بخاري۔ كتاب التفسير]
