31. Oh infidels of Makkah! Think before you! Think of your ending!

32. We learned that the worldly punishment on the infidels will not decrease the punishment of the Hereafter, and no matter how big the worldly punishment may be it will not be lighter than the punishment of the Hereafter. The punishment of the Hereafter is very severe. Allah protect us!
