Al-Anfaal (The Spoils of War)

37. “So that Allah may separate the corrupt from the good and place the corrupt on one another, and pile them up all together, and put them in Hell; those are the losers.”

The Arabic term, /yarkumah/ means: ‘to accumulate and to pile up together.’ From among the results of oppositions, molestations and the fights between right and wrong is that spiritualities, motives, revenues, promises, and plots are usually made manifest, and the essence or substance of man will be shown.

To make separate the supporters of the right from wrong is one of Allah's ways of treatment, the verse says:

“So that Allah may separate the corrupt from the good and place the corrupt on one another...”

On Resurrection Day, Allah will gather the corrupt persons with together and send them wholly into Hell. The verse says:

“...and pile them up all together, and put them in Hell; those are the losers.”

As some Islamic literature indicates, accumulation, pressure, and tightness of place are from the specialties of the people of Hell. These impious people are in narrowness there, though Hell is very vast and it repeatedly asks for more and more wrong-doers. It is like a large wall where there are many points of place for a great deal of nails, but every nail is in pressure.
