Allah ﷻ says
وَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ لَهُمْ نَارُ جَهَنَّمَ لَا يُقْضَىٰ عَلَيْهِمْ فَيَمُوتُوا۟
But those who disbelieve, for them will be the fire of Hell. Death is not decreed for them so that they may die.
[35:36]
Meaning, they enter the Hellfire for their disbelief, and they will not be given the mercy of Death.
_
As Allah ﷻ says
ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ
Wherein he will neither die nor live.
[87:13]

Abu Sa’id reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:
“Death will be brought on the Day of Resurrection in the form of a white ram, and it will be made to stand between Paradise and Hellfire. It will be said to the people of Paradise: Do you recognize this?
They will raise their heads, looking towards it, and they will say: Yes, it is death. Then, it will be said to the people of Hellfire: Do you recognize this? They will raise their heads, looking towards it, and they will say: Yes, it is death.
Then, the command will be given to slaughter the ram and it will be said: O people of Paradise, there is everlasting life for you and no death! And it will be said: O people of Hellfire, there is everlasting life for you and no death!”
Then, the Prophet recited the verse, “Warn them of this day of dismay, when their affairs will be decided, yet they are heedless and they do not have faith,” (19:39) and he pointed with his hand to the world.
[Sahih al-Bukhārī 4453, Sahih Muslim 2849]
_
وَلاَ يُخَفَّفُ عَنْهُمْ مِّنْ عَذَابِهَا
Nor will the torment be lightened for them.
[35:36]
Meaning, while they are in Hell, their punishment will only increase in severity and they will never face respite.
As Allah ﷻ says
فَذُوقُواْ فَلَن نَّزِيدَكُمْ إِلاَّ عَذَاباً
So taste, No increase shall we give you, except in torment.
[78:30]
Coming back to the previous ayah. Allah ﷻ says
ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى كُلَّ كَفُورٍۢ
Thus we do recompense the every ungrateful one.
[35:36]
Meaning, this is the appropriate recompense for these people.
_
وَهُمْ يَصْطَرِخُونَ فِيهَا
Therein they will cry
Means, they will call out in the Fire, beseeching Allah ﷻ
رَبَّنَآ أَخْرِجْنَا نَعْمَلْ صَٰلِحًا غَيْرَ ٱلَّذِى كُنَّا نَعْمَلُ ۚ
Our Lord! Bring us out, we shall do righteous good deeds, not that we used to do
[35:37]
They will ask to be returned with the promise of righteous action, but Allah ﷻ knows that they will also forsake this promise. So He ﷻ will not respond.
أَوَلَمْ نُعَمِّرْكُمْ مَّا يَتَذَكَّرُ فِيهِ مَن تَذَكَّرَ وَجَآءَكُمُ النَّذِيرُ
Did We not give you lives long enough, for whoever would remember therein to remember, and the warner had come to you?
[35:37]
_
Narrated Abu Huraira رضي الله عنه:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Allah will not accept the excuse of any person whose instant of death is delayed till he is sixty years of age.”
[Sahih al-Bukhari 6419]
_
This is why the scholars say, People should Fear Allah’s punishment more when they are young, and Hope in Allah’s Mercy more when they are old.
_
May Allah ﷻ grant us His mercy and forgiveness and keep us firm and steadfast upon His Deen.
آمِيْن يَارَبَّ الْعَالَمِينْ
