They will cry "o malik"

It is true that life in Hell-tire generally is unbearable but in Saqar, life is even more cruel and miserable because there is no life in the known sense of the word nor is there death which may be a kind of relief. It is an unendurable kind of torment and a constant torment that never stops. It is the kind of torment that makes life impossible but at the same time it does not cause death.

 

Here Allah, the Almighty, says, {But those who disbelieve, (in the Oneness of Allah - Islamic Monotheism) for them will be the Fire of Hellfire.

The petition was so long but the answer was so short because they were worthy of being despised and they were worthy of abiding forever in Hell-tire.
