“Our Lord, avert from us the punishment of Hell. Indeed, its punishment is ever adhering; Indeed, it is an evil abode and resting place.”

رَبَّنَا اصْرِفْ عَنَّا عَذَابَ جَهَنَّمَ ۖ إِنَّ عَذَابَهَا كَانَ غَرَامًا

إِنَّهَا سَاءَتْ مُسْتَقَرًّا وَمُقَامًا

Rabbanaa isrif ‘annaa ‘athaaba jahannama inna ‘athaabahaa kaana gharaama. Innahaa saa at mustaqarran wa muqaamaa.

Listen to the recitation of this dua.

This is the supplication of the believers. Allah says that His pious servants supplicate to Him with this prayer,

“Our Lord! Avert from us the torment of Hell. Verily, its torment is ever an inseparable punishment.”) meaning, ever-present and never ending.

Al-Hasan said concerning the Ayah,

(Verily, its torment is ever an inseparable, permanent punishment.) Everything that strikes the son of Adam, then disappears, does not constitute an inseparable, permanent punishment. The inseparable, permanent punishment is that which lasts as long as heaven and earth. This was also the view of Sulayman At-Taymi.

(Evil indeed it is as an abode and as a place to rest in.) means, how evil it looks as a place to dwell and how evil it is as a place to rest.
