Many people do not know Allah. This series is an attempt to help them in order to know and acknowledge their Creator.
Verses 7:44-45 of the Noble Quran talk about: 1) Allah's curse is on the evildoers, 2) When the inhabitants of Paradise will call to the inhabitants of the Fire?, Is Allah's Promise in the way of Reward and favor True?, 4) Is the chastisement which Allah promised the Disbelievers true? And 5) The Disbelievers are seeking the crooked way and are disbelieving in the Hereafter.
In the previous article (38) I said: "It would be fruitful to compare between circumstances and outcome of the believers versus the disbelievers.
What each of the two party shall say in the afterlife?
What each of the two party shall have in the afterlife?
What Allah shall say unto each of the two party?
What the Angels shall say unto each of the two party?
The interested reader could find out the answer of these question when comparing the present article with the articles 33 through 37."
Anyway, the believers will dwell in the Paradise forever and the disbelievers will dwell in the Fire forever.
Then, is the story of both parties ended up?
It is well known that the disbelievers used to mock the believers as regards their faith in the life of this world. Look how the media is attacking Islam and Muslims everyday!
Hence, it is not amazing that the believers will ask the disbelievers this question that is mentioned in verse 7:44.
The meaning of verse 7:44
And the inhabitants of Paradise will call to the inhabitants of the Fire, either in affirmation or in reprimand: 'We have found that which our Lord promised us, in the way of reward, to be true; have you found that, chastisement, which your Lord promised, you, to be true?' They will say: 'Yes!' And then a crier, a caller, shall proclaim between them, between both parties, making them hear that: 'God's curse is on the evildoers,
In other words, the verse says: And the dwellers of the Garden cry unto the dwellers of the Fire: We have found that which our Lord promised us of reward and favor to be the Truth. Have you too O people of the Fire found that which your Lord promised of torment and humiliation to be the Truth? They say: Yea, verily.
And a crier in between them between the people of Paradise and the people of hell cried: The curse of Allah the torment of Allah is on evil-doers, is on the disbelievers who...
The meaning of verse 7:45
Who bar, people, from Allah's way, from His religion, desiring it, that is, they seek the way that is, crooked, disbelieving in the Hereafter'.
In other words, the disbelievers are those Who debar men from the path of Allah, who divert people from Allah's religion and obedience and would have it crooked, would have it changed, and who are disbelievers in the Last Day in resurrection after death, in the Day of Judgment.

SHAKIR: and the dwellers of the garden will call out to the inmates of the fire: surely we have found what our lord promised us to be true; have you too found what your lord promised to be true? they will say: yes. then a crier will cry out among them that the curse of Allah is on the unjust

YUSUFALI: the companions of the garden will call out to the companions of the fire: "we have indeed found the promises of our lord to us true: have you also found your lord's promises true?" they shall say, "yes"; but a crier shall proclaim between them: "the curse of Allah is on the wrong-doers;-
Verse 7:45
QARIB: who have barred others from the path of Allah and sought to make it crooked, and who had no belief in the everlasting life.

YUSUFALI: "those who would hinder (men) from the path of Allah and would seek in it something crooked: they were those who denied the hereafter."
