اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ تَوَفّٰىهُمُ الْمَلٰٓىِٕكَةُ ظَالِمِیْۤ اَنْفُسِهِمْ قَالُوْا فِیْمَ كُنْتُمْ قَالُوْا كُنَّا مُسْتَضْعَفِیْنَ فِی الْاَرْضِ قَالُوْۤا اَلَمْ تَكُنْ اَرْضُ اللّٰهِ وَاسِعَةً فَتُهَاجِرُوْا فِیْهَا فَاُولٰٓىِٕكَ مَاْوٰىهُمْ جَهَنَّمُ وَسَآءَتْ مَصِیْرًا ۟

“When angels take the souls of those who die in sin against their souls, they say: "In what (plight) Were ye?" They reply: "Weak and oppressed Were we in the earth." They say: "Was not the earth of Allah spacious enough for you to move yourselves away (From evil)?" Such men will find their abode in Hell,- What an evil refuge! -”
