Important Words:

مقتحم (rushing headlong) is derived from قحم. They say قحم فی الامر i.e. he entered into the affair without consideration. اقتحم الامر means, he threw himself into the affair with vehemence and difficulty.

Commentary:

When leaders of disbelief will go to Hell, they will be told that a host of their followers will also enter into fire along with them. As the latter rushed to follow their leaders blindly and unthinkingly rejecting truth, so they will enter Hell rushing headlong.

The words لامرحباً بھم (no welcome for them) may be taken as having been spoken by the angels in charge of Hell or by the leaders of disbelief who would already be in Hell.
