Quran 40:45~46
So Allah protected him (Moses) from the evil of their schemes. And Pharaoh’s people were overwhelmed by an evil punishment: they are exposed to the Fire ˹in their graves˺ morning and evening. And on the Day the Hour will be established ˹it will be said˺, “Admit Pharaoh’s people into the harshest punishment ˹of Hell˺.”
Ghafir (Arabic: غافر, ghāfir; meaning: “The All-Forgiving”, referring to God), also known as Al-Muʼmin (Arabic: المؤمن, ’al-mu’min; meaning: The Believer), is the 40th chapter (sūrah) of the Qur’an, with 85 verses (āyāt).

فَوَقَىٰهُ ٱللَّهُ سَيِّـَٔاتِ مَا مَكَرُوا۟ۖ وَحَاقَ بِـَٔالِ فِرْعَوْنَ سُوٓءُ ٱلْعَذَابِ ‏ٱلنَّارُ يُعْرَضُونَ عَلَيْهَا غُدُوًّۭا وَعَشِيًّۭاۖ وَيَوْمَ تَقُومُ ٱلسَّاعَةُ أَدْخِلُوٓا۟ ءَالَ فِرْعَوْنَ أَشَدَّ ٱلْعَذَابِ
There are seven Surahs (al-Mu’min, HaMim al-Sajdah, al-Shura, al-Zukhruf, al-Dukhan, al-Jathiyah, al-Ahqaf) that begin with the word “HaMim”. Thus these seven Surahs are also called “al-Hawamim”. These are Surahs of Da’wah, inviting people to believe in Allah, take advantage of the mercy of Allah. There is solace and comfort in these Surahs for the Believers who were persecuted because of their faith and they are given the good news that the truth will prevail.
غرض خدا نے موسیٰ کو ان لوگوں کی تدبیروں کی برائیوں سے محفوظ رکھا اور فرعون والوں کو برے عذاب نے آگھیرا (یعنی) آتش (جہنم) کہ صبح وشام اس کے سامنے پیش کئے جاتے ہیں۔ اور جس روز قیامت برپا ہوگی (حکم ہوگا کہ) فرعون والوں کو نہایت سخت عذاب میں داخل کرو
