(Warn them) O Muhammad (of the Day of the approaching (doom)) of the horrors of the Day of Doom which is the Day of Judgement, (when the hearts will be choking the throats) because of grief and distress due to the exasperation they feel inwardly, ((when) there will be no friend) no close friend to help (for the wrong-doers) for the idolaters, (nor any intercessor who will be heard) upon interceding for them.
