سُوْرَةُ الْجَاثِيَةِ
Surah Al-Jaathiya (45) — Ayah 35
ذَٰلِكُم بِأَنَّكُمُ ٱتَّخَذْتُمْ ءَايَـٰتِ ٱللَّهِ هُزُوًا وَغَرَّتْكُمُ ٱلْحَيَوٰةُ ٱلدُّنْيَا ۚ فَٱلْيَوْمَ لَا يُخْرَجُونَ مِنْهَا وَلَا هُمْ يُسْتَعْتَبُونَ ﴿35﴾
Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
This, because you took the revelations of Allâh (this Qur’ân) in mockery, and the life of the world deceived you. So this Day, they shall not be taken out from there (Hell), nor shall they be returned to the worldly life, (so that they repent to Allâh, and beg His Pardon for their sins).

Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran — Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani
Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran (Facilitation of the Quran) is a comprehensive Quran commentary by Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar from Pakistan. Known for his eloquent and accessible writing style, Kilani authored this tafsir with a focus on clarity — making Quranic meanings understandable to the common reader. The tafsir provides detailed historical context for verses related to battles and expeditions, and firmly refutes modernist ideologies using strong scriptural evidence. It is widely regarded as an invaluable resource for understanding the Quran and countering deviant interpretations. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.
35. This is because you used to mock the signs of Allah, and the life of this world deceived you. So today, they will neither be taken out of the Fire, nor will they be asked to appease their Lord [48] by offering excuses.

The Meaning of ﴿استَعْتَبَ﴾:
The meaning of ﴿عَتَبَ﴾ is to rebuke, to show displeasure, and the meaning of 'a'ataba' is also to reproach and to be angry, as well as to address with affection (as this word belongs to the category of words with opposite meanings). And 'a'taba' means to remove displeasure, and 'ist'ataba' means to please someone and to reconcile with someone who is upset. Thus, those who are cast into Hell will not be given any opportunity to apologize, plead, or repent in order to please their Lord.
