Which verse indicates that there are people who pray who will enter the Fire?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Oct 24, 2026
The Almighty's saying: ﴿So woe to those who pray [But] who are heedless of their prayer﴾ indicates the entry of those who pray into Hellfire, and they are the hypocrites who do not hope for reward from their prayer nor fear punishment, and they neglect the prayer until its time passes them by. Al-Tabari interpreted their heedlessness as showing off, so they pray for people to see them. "Woe" (wayl) is a valley in Hell into which the disbeliever falls for forty autumns.
