Transliteration:( Yatajarra'uhoo wa laa yakaadu yuseeghuhoo wa ya'teehil mawtu min kulli makaaninw wa maa huwa bimaiyitinw wa minw waraaa'ihee 'azaabun ghaleez )
He will sip it gradually with great difficulty, and he will scarcely be able to swallow it. Death will come to him from every direction, yet he will not die [41]. And behind him is a severe punishment.
This means although death will seep into every fiber of the body of the inmate of Hell, he will not be able to die.
From this, we learn that Hell is eternal and that there is no salvation for the infidels of Hell from its punishment.
He who rejects this is, in fact, rejecting this verse.
