Surah Al-Ma'arij — Ayah 11 (70:11)

The Ascending Stairways · Makkah · Juz 29 · Mushaf page 569 of 604

يُبَصَّرُونَهُمۡۚ يَوَدُّ ٱلۡمُجۡرِمُ لَوۡ يَفۡتَدِي مِنۡ عَذَابِ يَوۡمِئِذِۭ بِبَنِيهِ ١١

English translation (Saheeh International)

They will be shown each other. The criminal will wish that he could be ransomed from the punishment of that Day by his children

Brief commentary

Each human will see their relatives clearly, yet despite that no one will ask another due to the horror of the scenario. The one deserving of the hellfire will wish to present his children to the punishment instead of himself.
