At-Tawbah 9:35

Word by word

يَوْمَ يُحْمَىٰ عَلَيْهَا فِى نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ فَتُكْوَىٰ بِهَا جِبَاهُهُمْ وَجُنُوبُهُمْ وَظُهُورُهُمْ ۖ هَـٰذَا مَا كَنَزْتُمْ لِأَنفُسِكُمْ فَذُوقُوا۟ مَا كُنتُمْ تَكْنِزُونَ

The Day when it will be heated in the fire of Hell and seared therewith will be their foreheads, their flanks, and their backs, [it will be said], "This is what you hoarded for yourselves, so taste what you used to hoard."

يوم القيامة توضع قطع الذهب والفضة في النار، فإذا اشتدت حرارتها أُحرقت بها جباه أصحابها وجنوبهم وظهورهم. وقيل لهم توبيخًا: هذا مالكم الذي أمسكتموه ومنعتم منه حقوق الله، فذوقوا العذاب الموجع; بسبب كنزكم وإمساككم.
