And the Day those who disbelieved are exposed to the Fire [it will be said], "You exhausted your pleasures during your worldly life and enjoyed them, so this Day you will be awarded the punishment of [extreme] humiliation because you were arrogant upon the earth without right and because you were defiantly disobedient."

Ibn Abbas Commentary

(And on the day when those who disbelieve are exposed to the Fire) before they actually enter it, ((it will be said)) to them: (Ye squandered your good things) you have used up the reward of your deeds (in the life of the world and sought comfort therein) and obtained benefit from the reward of your deeds in the life of the world. (Now this day ye are rewarded with the) severe (doom of ignominy because ye were disdainful) because you were too proud to accept faith (in the land without a right and because ye used to transgress) and because you used to disbelieve and transgress on the earth in the life of the world.

And on the day when those who disbelieve are exposed to the Fire by its being revealed for them it will be said to them ‘You squandered read with one hamza adhhabtum or with two hamzas as an interrogative a-adhhabtum ‘have you sqaundered …?’; or with one hamza adhhabtum or with an initial long ‘a’ ādhhabtum with both of these pronounced fully or without pronouncing the second hamza your good things during your life of the world by preoccupying yourselves with sensual delights and enjoyed them. So today you will be requited with the chastisement of humiliation in return for acting arrogantly in the earth without right and in return for that regarding which you used to act immorally’ and for the torture you used to inflict upon others therein.
