Qaaf (The letter Qaaf)

30. On the Day when We will say unto Hell: “Are you filled?” It will say: “Are there any more?”

Hell is intelligent in some way or another as it is addressed by God Almighty and thus replies His question:

“Are there any more?”

Likewise, people of Hell used to say the same when they were preoccupied in this world with worshipping worldly possessions and offices and transgressing people’s rights.

The imperative verbal form;

“Remember”

in the blessed Verse in question may refer to destiny, namely:

“O Muhammad [SAW]! Remember the Day when Hell will be filled with jinn and mankind and God Almighty asks Hell: “Are you filled?”

Hell will reply in verbal or non-verbal language:

“Are there any more?”

The blessed Verse bears testimony to the point that Allah’s promises and warnings are true and Hell shall be filled with disbelievers and the disobedient.
