but there came after them generations who neglected prayer and were driven by their own desires. These will come face to face with their evil,

— M. A. S. Abdel Haleem

Then, there has succeeded them a posterity who have given up As-Salât (the prayers) [i.e. made their Salât (prayers) to be lost, either by not offering them or by not offering them perfectly or by not offering them in their proper fixed times] and have followed lusts. So they will be thrown in Hell.

— Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
