They are pursued by a curse in this [world], as well as on the Day of Resurrection; evil is the award conferred [upon them]!

Surah Hud – Verse 99
99. “And they are followed by a curse in this world and on the Day of Judgment, and woeful is the gift which shall be given (them).”
Those who become followers of Pharaohs and despots are always associated with infamy and curses and their notorious names are always recorded in the books of history as people seduced by evil. Thus they will be at a loss both in this world and in the next, and what a bad gift (i.e. the curse of Allah and being distanced from Him) is that which is going to be their share. The verse says:
“And they are followed by a curse in this world and on the Day of Judgment, and woeful is the gift which shall be given (them).”
