ثُمَّ لَنَنْزِعَنَّ مِنْ كُلِّ شِيعَةٍ أَيُّهُمْ أَشَدُّ عَلَى الرَّحْمَنِ عِتِيًّا (69) ثُمَّ لَنَحْنُ أَعْلَمُ بِالَّذِينَ هُمْ أَوْلَى بِهَا صِلِيًّا (70) وَإِنْ مِنْكُمْ إِلَّا وَارِدُهَا كَانَ عَلَى رَبِّكَ حَتْمًا مَقْضِيًّا (71) ثُمَّ نُنَجِّي الَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْا وَنَذَرُ الظَّالِمِينَ فِيهَا جِثِيًّا

Then We shall surely extract from every faction whichever of them was most rebellious against the Most Merciful. Then We are most knowing of those who are most deserving to burn therein. And there is none among you but shall approach it – this was upon your Lord a decree determined/made impossible to be revoked. Then We shall rescue those who were mindful of God and leave the wrongdoers therein, fallen upon their knees. (Quran 19:69-72)
