The unseenKeeper of Hell
Malik, keeper of the Fireمالك
The angel in charge of Hell, who answers the people of the Fire: you will remain.
The Quran gives one scene. The people of the Fire call out, O Malik, let your Lord finish us off. He replies that they will stay. He is not cruel; he carries out justice exactly as commanded, and never disobeys.
What does the Quran say?
And they will call, "O Malik, let your Lord put an end to us!" He will say, "Indeed, you will remain."
Quran 43:77
The lesson
There will be no escape to beg for later, so the time to turn back is now.
