12. And on the Day when the Hour is established, the criminals will be plunged into utter despair [11].

[11] That is, they will despair of their salvation and also of any intercession or help from anyone. And their condition will be such as when a criminal is caught red-handed committing a crime in front of people. Such a person is overcome by intense grief and despair because he sees no possible way to escape the punishment for his crime.
