Explanatory translation

48From now on, the false intercession of the clerics who support false systems and oppressive centers of power cannot save them, and such intercession will be of no use at all. Let them not say, “We will find an intermediary and get our affair settled.” No one can save them from Saqar’s grip. No one can mediate in Allah’s sight for the salvation of those wrongdoers, and the disbelievers will never be granted intercession.
