Overall meaning : On the Day of Resurrection, the unbelievers will be driven to Hell in separate, successive groups. When they reach it, its seven gates will be opened, and its keepers will reprovingly ask them, ‘Did messengers from among yourselves not come to you, reciting to you the revelations of your Lord and warning you of the terrors of the Day of Judgement?’
‘Yes, they did,’ they will admit, ‘but the sentence of eternal punishment has been justly pronounced on the unbelievers.’ They will be told, ‘Enter the gates of Hell to dwell there for ever.’ Evil indeed is Hell as a dwelling place for the arrogant!
